The StringList Property

This may be used wherever a property requires a list of words, for example the built-in ‘Groups’ property requires a list of group ids to which the object belongs.

It is shown in the Designer as a comma-separated list in a standard edit field, with a ‘Zoom’ button at the right. By default, this splits the list and shows each word on a line of its own in a popup edit window.

To invoke a specific service function, set the property as “myprop : stringlist ‘foo’ “ – this will run foo in the class passing it a vector of text vectors, and expecting a similar result.
