Ok, I'll bite... When we make an editable combo box, how do we get the text? |
| ||
I was going to say the GadgetText$() command but there doesn't seem to be one so TextFieldText$() will have to suffice. I hope... |
| ||
yes i needed this some days ago as well. I didnt try textfiledtext though. hmm |
| ||
TextFieldText was one of the first things I tried. But alas, like the BMax documentation... It's a riddle wrapped in an enigma shrouded in mystery -Jim |

Are Blitz Research going to listen and make a proper attempt at writing documentation? I'm no beginner coder, and neither are you guys (Mr Sibly and co) - when you're writing Win32 code, do you curse the MSDN library? I do. Surely you have pride in your work, you've done a brilliant job of putting BlitzMAX together, now make it shine with PROPER documentation. Time constraints? Hire a professional technical author. I've paid for it. And quite frankly - it's not good enough. |

***BUMP*** I'd realy like to know how to get the text out of a combo box when it is set to Editable. |
| ||
***Any one?*** BRL People? Any takers? |
| ||
I find it hard to believe that the creators of Blitz can't answer this simple question... |
| ||
Yes, sorry about the initial reply, after a proper look it turns out COMBOBOX_EDITABLE is currently broken, will be fixed in next update. |

That's cool. It makes better sense that it's a bug in the application, than simply a poorly documented feature. I can find a workaround for now. |
