How to increase the height of StringField Area in SKILL GUI

Manikk0501

Hi,

I want a String Field area with more height than the normal. I tried give the field area coordinates as (5:10 600:500 150), but it is shifting the whole field area instead of the increasing the field area height. This works fine for a ListBoxField. I am not sure if i am making a silly error by missing something in hiCreateStringField() command or I need a different function to achieve this.

Thanks and Regards,

  • You probably want a multi-line text field instead. String fields are intended to be a single row. For example:

    hiCreateMLTextField(
    ?name s_fieldName
    [?prompt t_prompt]
    [?value t_value]
    [?help g_fieldHelp]
    [?defValue t_defaultValue]
    [?font t_font]
    [?hasVerticalScrollbar g_hasVerticalScrollbar]
    [?hasHorizontalScrollbar g_hasHorizontalScrollbar]
    [?enableWordWrap g_enableWordWrap]
    [?editable g_editable]
    [?enabled g_enabled]
    [?invisible g_invisible]
    [?callback g_callback]
    [?focusInCallback g_focusInCallback]
    [?changeCB g_changeCB]
    [?nextField g_nextField]
    )
    => r_fieldHandle

    Creates a multiline text field entry for a form. Any input typed into this field will be converted to a single string accessible through SKILL.
