how do you make a new glab with btext coming for the inputed value from textpane?

Values from TEXTPANE gadget are array of strings. How dfo you want them to be put into one line? with word hyphenation?

setup form !!testform
textpane .tx1 'text for label' width 10 hei 5
 path down
button .create 'create label' callback '!this.create()'

exit
define method .testform()
endmethod
define method .create()
 VIEW
  HANDLE ANY
    !!Alert.Message('Goto VIEW level first')
  RETURN
  ENDHANDLE
  LAYE 1
  !getLaye = !!CE.Name
!textArray = !this.tx1.Val
if (!textArray.Size() EQ 0) then
   !!Alert.Message('No text input')
 RETURN
endif

!newBtext = !textArray[1]
do !x from 2 to !textArray.Size()
!newBtext = !newBtext + '#/' + !textArray[!x]
enddo

!!Alert.Message('Identify Design Item for new label')
VAR !getItem IDEN @
$!getLaye
 NEW GLAB
 Ddname $!getItem
 !glabCE = !!CE.Name
  Btext |$!newBtext|
endmethod


If you want to use specific line then use Line(REAL) gadget method to get line with specific number

the code above read values from TEXTPANE and if there are many lines then do next line in label

i dont understand what do you mean by set to view..
Label normally attached to some items. Maybe if you can descrive your task more specific I can offer something else

you can do it  like that


setup form !!testform
textpane .tx1 'text for label' width 10 hei 5
 path down
button .create 'create label' callback '!this.create()'

exit
define method .testform()
endmethod
define method .create()
 VIEW
  HANDLE ANY
    !!Alert.Message('Goto VIEW level first')
  RETURN
  ENDHANDLE
  !viewName = !!Ce.Name
  LAYE 1
  !getLaye = !!CE.Name
!textArray = !this.tx1.Val
if (!textArray.Size() EQ 0) then
   !!Alert.Message('No text input')
 RETURN
endif

!newBtext = !textArray[1]
do !x from 2 to !textArray.Size()
!newBtext = !newBtext + '#/' + !textArray[!x]
enddo

$!getLaye
 NEW GLAB
 DDname $!viewName
  Btext |$!newBtext|
endmethod



it will attch label to the centre of view

Hello.

Good afternoon.

I would like to ask if you could me with my problem. with a method to create a glab normally I have already indicated it like btext 'NS/FS'. But how we have the value of Btext be coming for the value type in the textpane?

hi Ruav thanks for sharing your code. the form works, but how do I modify it so that I do not have to pick or identify element. The glab does not have to be ddname to any element or can we have it set automatically to the current view? thanks.

thank for you reply. on your code we have to connect it to an element. instead of connecting it to an element (sctn, pane etc.) can it be connected automatically to the view or ddname = layer owner. this is so that if there are any changes in the design the glab will not be affected.

Hi, Ruav thank you very much for the code. it is working very good.
