Tree View Properties
attributeName
The attributeName property represents the name of the property within the collection of items to be displayed in the part.
backgroundColor
The backgroundColor property is the name of the RGB color for the background of the part.
borderWidth
The borderWidth property is the width of the border, specified in pixels, that surrounds the part on all four sides. A width of zero means that a border does not show.
On some platforms, the border width is limited to 1 pixel and any nonzero value is set to 1.
defaultGraphicsDescriptor
The defaultGraphicsDescriptor property specifies the descriptor for a default icon or bitmap that displays when an item in the tree view is not selected. Items that are added to the tree view can override the instance method abtCwTreeNode to supply customized characteristics for the node that is added to the tree view. If this method is not overridden, the defaultGraphicsDescriptor is used by the tree view to determine the icon/bitmap that is displayed when the node is unselected.
defaultSelectedGraphicsDescriptor
The defaultSelectedGraphicsDescriptor property specifies the descriptor for a default icon or bitmap that displays when an item in the tree view is selected. Items that are added to the tree view can override the instance method abtCwTreeNode to supply a customized instance of AbtCwTreeNode which can be used to set the #selectedGraphicsDescriptor for the item. If abtCwTreeNode method is not overridden, the defaultSelectedGraphicsDescriptor is used by the tree view to determine the icon/bitmap that is displayed when the node is selected.
dragDropSpec (AbtDragDropSpec)
For more information on the dragDropSpec attribute, refer to Using the dragDropSpec attribute

showLines
The showLines property specifies whether lines should appear between the nodes.
showPlusMinus

tabGroup
The tabGroup property specifies whether or not the part is included as a tab stop so users can use the Tab and Backtab keys to access the part.
