Hello

When I click the Edit add new lines and Edit is not first cleaned...





INCLUDE "hug.bac"
INIT

SUB AFFICHER
TEXT(EDIT_BOX," ")
TEXT(EDIT_BOX,"Hello "&CR$)
TEXT(EDIT_BOX," World"&CR$&CR$)
END SUB

REM Fenêtre principale
Mainwin = WINDOW( "Test erase Edit", 300, 200)

EDIT_BOX = EDIT(100, 100)
ATTACH( Mainwin, EDIT_BOX, 10, 10)

ButtonAfficher = STOCK("Afficher", 80, 25)
ATTACH( Mainwin, ButtonAfficher, 20, 150 )
CALLBACK( ButtonAfficher , AFFICHER)

ButtonQuitter = STOCK("gtk-quit", 80, 25)
ATTACH( Mainwin, ButtonQuitter, 120, 150 )
CALLBACK( ButtonQuitter , QUIT)

DISPLAY

Hi basica

Thanks

I was thinking of an instruction of the type CLEAR(EDIT_BOX) or RESET(EDIT_BOX) etc.

it would be more explicit than not putting anything in a string

Hi ptitjoz,

The idea of the HUG include is to provide access to GUI programming but with a limited set of functions.

Basically, each widget can SET/GET a value, or TEXT/GRAB$ a string, to or from itself. Very specific low-level properties can be set with PROPERTY.

If you really need other functions, then maybe best is to add a wrapper yourself, or start using GTK directly in your code.
