BBjInputN::setValue

Description

Sets the value of the BBjInputN control.

Syntax

Return Value

Method

void

setValue(float value)

Parameters

Variable

Description

value

Specifies the value to be set in the control.

Return Value

None.

Remarks

Note that a mask within a control does NOT round, but a mask within the STR() DOES round. For example, when placing a value such as 12.34567 into an inputN control that is masked with ###0.00, you'll get 12.34. However, if in console mode you print str(12.34567:"###0.00"), you'll get 12.35.

Example

rem 'Set the value of an InputN control

rem 'Obtain the instance of the BBjAPI object
let myAPI! = BBjAPI()

rem 'Open the SysGui device
SYSGUI = UNT
OPEN (SYSGUI) "X0"

rem 'Obtain the instance of the BBjSysGui object
let mySysGui! = myAPI!.getSysGui()

rem 'Set addWindow param values
X = 10
Y = 10
WIDTH = 200
HEIGHT = 200
TITLE$ = "BBj Window"

rem 'Set the current context
mySysGui!.setContext(0)

rem 'Create a window
myWindow! = mySysGui!.addWindow(X,Y,WIDTH,HEIGHT,TITLE$)

rem 'Add an INPUTN control that limits input to 10 characters, and inserting
rem 'the value 1 when the user hits the restore key (normally ESCAPE)
myInputN! = myWindow!.addInputN(101,50,100,90,30,$0804$,"##,###,###.00",$$,1,0)

rem 'Set the value of an InputN control
myInputN!.setValue(355)

rem 'Register the CALLBACK routines
CALLBACK(ON_CLOSE,APP_CLOSE,mySysGui!.getContext())

rem 'Process Events
process_events

rem 'Callback routine called when the user closes the application window
APP_CLOSE:
release
