how to specify the position of fields in a form

suzan

Hi, 

I would like to create a form containing 4 buttons and specify the position of each button in the form. I wrote the following code:

 Form1= hiCreateAppForm(

?name 'Form1

?fields list(

        ConfigBouton

        1000:0

       500:500

        CompareBouton

        1600:0

        500:500

        AnalogBouton

        1000:1000

        500:500

        RFBouton

        1600:1000

        500:500

)

)

Each time I execute this code, I have the following error message " getSymbol: invalid field: nil"

Some one can tell me what is the right syntax to specify button positions and the kind of values that I should put?

Thanks

suzan

     You can stack the functions and the locations.

    procedure(myGuiMenu()
    hiCreateAppForm(
            ?name 'myMenuForm
            ?formTitle "Da Form"
            ?buttonLayout 'Close
            ?initialSize 500:500
            ?fields list(
    list(   hiCreateButton(
                    ?name 'ConfigBouton
                    ?buttonText "Config")                              0:0     100:30  50)
    list(   hiCreateButton(
                    ?name CompareBouton
                    ?buttonText "Compare")                        125:0   100:30  50)
    list(   hiCreateButton(
                    ?name 'Analog
                    ?buttonText "Analog")                           250:0   100:30  50)
    )); end of hiCreateAppForm
    ); end of myGuiMenu
