dlgTextView  : tips and tricks!

Former Member

Hi all,

 

 

first appologise my english (old french guy writing)

 

I'm using a goog BOM generator written of course with ULP, the last and only enhancement I would like to do is around the display.

 

The BOM is both written in a file and directly display by dlgTextView() function.

 

But the dialog box displayed is VERY small and lines are wrapped! and using the mouse to expand it is very boring when i'm in optimizing phase of my design....

 

do you know an option or a way to make it larger????

 

thank's all

    something like that should do the trick

     

         dlgVBoxLayout {

           dlgHBoxLayout {dlgSpacing(250);};

     

           dlgTextView ("") { .... };

         }

    Hi Lorenz

     

    thanks!

     

    but unfortunatly it does'nt work :

     

    here is my code :

     

    dlgDialog("BOM format texte ")

                            {

                                dlgHBoxLayout

                                {

                                               

                                    dlgHBoxLayout {dlgSpacing(250);};

                                    dlgTextView (TextBOM);

                                }

                                dlgPushButton("OK")

                                {

                                    dlgAccept();

                                }

     

    and the result is : image

     

    sorry.....image

    dlgDialog("BOM format texte "){

                            dlgHBoxLayout{

                                dlgHBoxLayout {dlgSpacing(250);};

                                dlgTextView (TextBOM);

                            }

                            dlgPushButton("OK"){

                                dlgAccept();

                            }

     

    Just a little wrong. The spacing to make the TextView wider has to be in

    the Horizontal layout within the default vertical layout of the

    dlgDialog().

     

    dlgDialog("BOM format texte "){

                dlgHBoxLayout{dlgSpacing(500);}

                dlgTextView ("TextBOM");

                dlgPushButton("OK"){dlgAccept();}

    };

                                    ^-- this should be a 'V'

     

    but as Warren mentions, the default layout of dlgDialog is vertical.

    So the dlgVBoxLayout in this context is superfluous.
