Re: Live search box

[dunbarx via use-livecode]

maybe I did not answer your question correctly.

You can conveniently:

set the rawText of btn "XYZ" to the clipBoardData

Re: Live search box

Hi.

When you change an ordinary property, you set it to a new value:

set the width of btn 3 to 50.

A custom property is "filled" in the same way:

set the rawText of me to chapterOneOfDonQuixote

Custom properties are created just like variables; you just do it. Try this.
make a new button named "XYZ", and:

set the albertEinstein of btn "XYZ" to "E=MC^2"

Now go into the property inspector and look at the custom property pane. Or
you can always:

answer the albertEinstein of btn "XYZ".

Custom properties can hold any value of any kind of any size. They survive
sessions, unlike global variables, and do not have to be declared.

Go practice.

Craig

Thank you very much Cray,

Your solution is very useful and works perfectly, but now I have another 
problem.


How could I fill out with texts this custom property ("rawText') by script?

My application is multi-language (English, Spanish and French), so when 
someone clicks on the language button, this custom property must be 
filled with the different data of the different languages.

I cannot see how to do that on the Livecode Dictionary.

Best,
Hery

Hi.

This is fun to do. Make two fields. In the target field, the one you will
type into, set a custom property "rawText" to some long list of words,
perhaps chapter 1 of your favorite novel. It is a good idea to strip all
punctation from that text before setting the prop.

In that field, place this handler:

on keyDown tKey
if the length of me > 2 then put line lineOffset(me,the rawText of me) of
the rawText of me into fld 2
pass keydown
end keyDown

Re: Live search box

[Bob Sneidar via use-livecode]

I already have that. I call it FindBar. It's a group of objects, and all the 
code and constants are in the field object. I can send you a stack. Currently 
it works with sqlYoga accessed databases and a datagrid, but you can peruse the 
code and see how the findbar hot typing works, then decide how you want to 
proceed after that.

Hi.

This is fun to do. Make two fields. In the target field, the one you will
type into, set a custom property "rawText" to some long list of words,
perhaps chapter 1 of your favorite novel. It is a good idea to strip all
punctation from that text before setting the prop.

In that field, place this handler:

on keyDown tKey
   if the length of me > 2 then put line lineOffset(me,the rawText of me) of
the rawText of me into fld 2
   pass keydown
end keyDown

Live search box

[Heriberto Torrado via use-livecode]

/Dear Livecode programmers,

My customer changed his mind and now they would like to have this:

"...if you can create a "search like" box when the customer would find 
his condition by typing the 2 or 3 first letters  and selecting the 
right one by clicking on it (like the google search results)...".


Well, creating something like this with AJAX and PHP is pretty easy, but 
I don't know how to do it with livecode.
Of course I know how to connect with a MySQL database, extract data, 
insert data, put the data on a grid of field, etc with livecode (I did 
it for a lot of time and it is pretty easy).


But create a "live search" is something I never did with Livecode.

Dou you guys have a tip for that?

Thank you very much in advance./

Hery
