Hi
>@Piotr: can you report this in the 4D forum as feature request? So I can vote
Object filters don't do the same thing because placeholders cause the problems
Koen already outlined.
Here is the link to the feature request for alpha variable length limit (I also
asked for similar alpha/text
maybe -
ON BEFORE KEYSTROKE
test the current entered length vs expected/desired maximum (255, 4000
etc)

No idea who thought this one up, but it wasn't me. I've seen and heard
plenty of 4D developers who keep a table with fields of various lengths. In
your case, an alpha 255 and a text field. Then, you use that field on your
form and 4D
thank you for sharing.
to be honest,
I have never used the "filter" feature since it is not compatible with Japanese
by design (we don't use a keyboard with 10,000 keys, so before/after keystroke
doesn't make sense).
I was hopeful it might work with filtering ASCII by length,
well, apparently
Hi Keisuke,
Tested with v16R4. Unfortunately this does not work nicely.
The entry is indeed limited to the number of chars given. But…
1. when continuously typing, the cursor wraps around from the last char to the
first and the already entered text is overwritten
2. you cannot select more than 1
you can set a (rather simplistic) length limit to a variable by code.
OBJECT SET FILTER(*;"__object_name_here";"! &@"+("#"*$maxlen))

Hello,
the variable type property serves two purposes:
to filter the display in the property list,
and to declare the data source variable type in case no variable name is
defined.
otherwise, you only need to know OBJECT Get type which is constant for the
object,
and OBJECT Get pointer which
Hi,
V16
Maybe this is a stupid question but I just don't see it :
When putting a variable on a form and set a variable name to t I attach a
variable to the object, for example a C_TEXT variable
However, there is also a property "Variable Type", that doesn't necessarily has
to be of type text,
9 matches
