tree view widget

[Dave Kilroy]

Talk about buggy - my last posting had so many typos I'm doing it again:

Yeah that inspector is buggy. 

I think the  'Key:' and 'Value:' properties are only for when you are using
the inspector to add or update elements to it 

If you click the "+ Add new element" button at the top of the 'Arraydata'
property field, then highlight the new key in the 'Arraydata' field, then
click in the 'Value:' field and write something followed by pressing the tab
or return key then the value will appear in 'Arraydata'. 

But quite a lot of the time the 'Key:' field is of no use (the hilited key
in the 'Arraydata' field always seems to over-ride anything in the 'Key:'
field). And the inspector seems to be unable to accept data for
multi-dimensional arrays. 

Much easier to use script to populate the widget's arrayData property. 

One other thing to note is that the hilitedElement returns the key with a
trailing comma so in script I have to do something like: 

    put the hilitedElement of me into tKey
    if char -1 of tKey is comma then delete char -1 of tKey
