Example code for the id SLA_MABEL_SURFACE in XSLAMabel

Note that this is not the actual code from the XSLAMabel file.

This code is just an example to show you how to add a similar control to your own description.

Resource File Code (XSLAMabel.res)


LONG  SLA_MABEL_SURFACE
{
MATEDNOTEXT  ;                          
    CYCLE 
    {         SLA_MABEL_SURFACE_1; 
        SLA_MABEL_SURFACE_2; 
        SLA_MABEL_SURFACE_BOTH; 
    }
}
            

Header File Code (XSLAMabel.h)

#ifndef XSLAMABEL_H__

    SLA_MABEL_SURFACE_2 = 2,
    SLA_MABEL_SURFACE_BOTH = 3,
};
#endif	// XSLAMABEL_H__
