String field that stores history of inputs

MSP032

Hi,

Please let me know if we have a string field in SKILL GUI that stores the history of inputs.

Possibly, it may have a drop down arrow button, which when clicked, will give all the previous inputs of the string field.

Thanks,
Mallikarjun

    Hi Mallikarjun,

    I don't think this is a built in feature - but it shouldn't be to hard to implement it in terms of a combo field. Just make sure the combo field's callback updates the items:


    histFld = hiCreateComboField(
       ?name       'histFld
       ?items nil
       ?callback (lambda (formName form)
                      form->histFld->items = (append form->histFld->items (list form->histFld->value))
                      )
       .......
    )

    regards

    Max
