Create GUI to store user input string

blankman
Hi,

I’m looking to create a GUI that takes and stores a number of input strings, ie lib name, cell name etc. I’ve tried using hiDisplayAppDBox, but this only allows for creation of buttons. Is there means of doing this?

Thanks,
Brian.

    Hi Brian,

    By the way, you don't really need to make the string fields global - the form structure is already global, so you can just access the string fields directly from that.  E.g. BrianExampleForm->libName1->value and so on.  Fewer global variables is better, and generally easier to code with and debug for.

    Best regards,

    Lawrence.
