Hi,
REALbasic 2006 Release 3
Mac OS X 10.4.7
The question is: how can I do what the example code below suggest I want
to do!
[In Window.MouseDown] I wanted to use Select Case, tried some solutions
and fall into:
Select Case Y
Case Is < 100 // Was: Y < 100 // Row #1
startY = 0
endY = 100
Case Between(Y,100,200) // Was: Is > 100 And Is < 200 // Row #2
startY = 100
endY = 200
Case Between(Y,200,300) // Was: Is > 100 And Is < 200 // Row #3
startY = 200
endY = 300
Case Between(Y,300,400) // Was: Is > 100 And Is < 200 // Row #4
startY = 300
endY = 400
Case Between(Y,400,500) // Was: Is > 100 And Is < 200 // Row #5
startY = 400
endY = 500
End Select
But this does not works:
Type mismatch error. Expected Int32, but got Boolean.
Select Case Select Case Y
Why ?
BTW: Between is, according the Language Reference, a Function that
returns True when the Y passed value is between the two int32 values.
I will get True if Y value is between 100 and 200:
Between(Y,100,200)
Before explaining to me that Y is a Int32 (or Integer), consider my
previous attempts that failed:
Case Y > 100 And Y < 200
Case Is > 100 And Is < 200
At last consider also that it tooks me sometimes to figure what ls was
in fact IS (not LS)... UpperCase i followed by a LowerCase s...
What was my work-around ? after considering to use a Variant (say myY As
Variant, Select Case myY), I commented the whole Select blick and use a
good old If .../... ElseIf .../... End If block.
I still have a problem, but this may be my fault on another part of the
code (I am not able to fill the window background:
g.ForeColor = cmy(0,0,0.12)
g.FillRect 0,startY,0,endY
Yes, I have a bit of work to do there)
Regards,
Emile
PS: Stupid, stupid me (sometimes only, fortunately)... I just have to
change the last 0 to Self.Width ! (FillRect 0,startY,Self.Width,100) -
yes, endY was false too. That was an alpha draft !
