getting class and subclass from ministatus

Ejlersen

Hi

I'm using a mini status window and is for the first time using the builtin class and subclass fields. 

But when I read the fields using axlFormGetField then I get a numeric value back.

I've searched everywhere in the manual and looked over all axl commands with layer, class etc. to figure out how I can get from the numeric to the class/subclass which is what I'm looking for,

Any hints is really appreciated, thanks.

Best regards

Ole

    Yes, I have had frustrations with this over the years. However, because the effect is to change the active layer, you can just use axlGetActiveLayer to see what values are set.

    Hi Dave

    Thank you, I should have paid more attention to the deskription when mentioning active layer :-)

    Hi Dave

    Just for the record, axlGetActiveLayer and axlSetActiveLayer are set to obsolete but probably still works. They are replaced with axlDBControl and works fine with class/subclass in ministatus.
