Re: Sharing field text

[Bj�rnke von Gierke]

You might also look at the 3th check on the "field" tab in the property palette it is labelled: "share text on each card". It must be checked to let the field have the same text on each card where its group resides on.
Thus you can have different text in a grouped field for each card too.

Only groups can be shared controls. Try this. Put the field in a

"place"; use place in the menu. Confirm the "share text" checkbox. Enter some text. I think it will show up on all cards. Most
parameters will be the same on cards; it is the same field control.
The position will have to be the same on all cards.

Thanks - it worked! I am not sure if I could have deduced this from the documentation, but anyhow I didn't. Of course if I had wanted just the one field, I could still have grouped it with a harmless grc behind the field or something like that, so the need for the shared object to be a group is by no means a show-stopper.

Thanks again
