How to display the same text on a form with different text fields

SkilSiao over 13 years ago

Hi,

I have two different TEXT definition (to display design unit) in my form file, it looks like this:

TEXT
FLOC 24 21
INFO design_unit 10
ENDTEXT

...

TEXT
FLOC 24 24
INFO design_unit 10
ENDTEXT

in my function, i initialize the design_unit to:

axlFormSetInfo(wireInfoForm, "design_unit", car(axlDBGetDesignUnits()))

but it turns up that ONLY the first TEXT will display the unit (e.g millimeter)

and the second one shows nothing. it is the same with using axlFormSetField.

is there a way to set the display of the two TEXT fields to be the same?

Give each form object a unique label: TEXT FLOC 24 21 INFO design_unit1 10 ENDTEXT ... TEXT FLOC 24 24 INFO design_unit2 10 ENDTEXT axlFormSetInfo(wireInfoForm, "design_unit1", car(axlDBGetDesignUnits())) axlFormSetInfo(wireInfoForm, "design_unit2", car(axlDBGetDesignUnits()))

Hi eDave,
Thanks, it works well... but it looks like a little of inefficient in this case.
is there a way to set a single INFO label and only need to preset it once in the function?
Best Regards
