Chapter 4 - List Manager

Introduction to Lists

You can use the List Manager to store and update elements of data within a list and to display the list in a rectangle within a window. The List Manager provides routines that allow you to create, manipulate, and display lists. It can also respond appropriately to a mouse click within a list by, for example, scrolling a list when the user clicks in a scroll bar. Thus, using the List Manager is easier than using the Control Manager and QuickDraw to create a scrolling list of items.
