Bonus TIPS for Successful Posting

Try a Search First
It is highly recommended that a Search be done on your topic before posting, as many questions have been answered in prior posts. As with any search engine, the shorter the search term, the more "hits" will be returned, but the more specific the search term is, the greater the relevance of those "hits". Searching for "table" might well return every message on the board while "tablesum" would greatly restrict the number of messages returned.

When you do post
First, make sure you are posting your question in the correct forum. For example, if you post an issue regarding Desktop applications on the Mobile & Browser Applications board , not only will your question not be seen by the appropriate audience, it may also be removed or relocated.

The more detail you provide about your problem or question, the more likely someone is to understand your request and be able to help. A sample database with a minimum of records (and its support files, zipped together) will make it much easier to diagnose issues with your application. Screen shots of error messages are especially helpful.

When explaining how to reproduce your problem, please be as detailed as possible. Describe every step, click-by-click and keypress-by-keypress. Otherwise when others try to duplicate your problem, they may do something slightly different and end up with different results.

A note about attachments
You may only attach one file to each message. Attachment file size is limited to 2MB. If you need to include several files, you may do so by zipping them into a single archive.

If you forgot to attach your files to your post, please do NOT create a new thread. Instead, reply to your original message and attach the file there.

When attaching screen shots, it is best to attach an image file (.BMP, .JPG, .GIF, .PNG, etc.) or a zip file of several images, as opposed to a Word document containing the screen shots. Because Word documents are prone to viruses, many message board users will not open your Word file, therefore limiting their ability to help you.

Similarly, if you are uploading a zipped archive, you should simply create a .ZIP file and not a self-extracting .EXE as many users will not run your EXE file.

    Help Aligning entry boxes on a Dialog

    I've been going around in circles (metaphorically speaking) trying to align the "Type-in" boxes on the following Dialog Script. Everything else works as expected.

    The Dialog Script:

    With reference to the attached PDF File with all the various different displays of the Dialog.

    Figures 2 and 3

    How do I get the two entry boxes in the same place (ie where the "ICAO_Code" box is on Figure 2)?

    Figures 4,5,6,7

    How do I get each entry box onto the line below "Select From List"?

    I have realised that I have sent the wrong picture for Figure 6, so here is a new pdf with all the correct pictures.

      Re: Help Aligning entry boxes on a Dialog

      this driving mad, after eight hours of playing around with the "Using the {col} and {row} commands" example in help, I getting very frustrated with this, if you see a PC in orbit over the UK, you will know its mine.

      a much simplified dialog box, where I get one bit right then change something and it all goes egg-shapped again!

      Code:
      ui_dlg_box("Testing",<<%dlg%
      {region}
      {col1}{frame=2,2}{row1}
      (Mode:Airline)

      (Mode:Register)
      (Mode:Production)
      (Mode:Location)
      {endrow1}{endcol1}
      {endregion}
      {comment=Airline Chosen}
      {condition=mode="Airline"}
      {region}
      {col1}{row3}
      (choice={Icao Code,Full Operator Name})
      [12,15DummyEntry1]
      {endrow3}{endcol1}{endregion};
      {comment=Production Chosen}
      {condition=mode="Production"}

        Re: Help Aligning entry boxes on a Dialog

        Noob reply = I get that line lined up wrong if I miss a ;. I don't know what the proper way to break lines but I always break on {endregion}; and leave the line before it without a break ;. Just me. But that line and box looks like what I run into when I misplace or don't place a ;. Thanks

          Re: Help Aligning entry boxes on a Dialog

          I fixed it to do what you want. but you should use {condition_begin} and {condition_end} to signify what is conditional, especially if it's nested inside of another conditional. And Don't line break inside a condition area, unless the conditionally viewed materials is multi-lined. Line break at the end of the complete Conditional statement...I'm working a lot with Xdialog these days and have run into these types of over-lapping and such.

          Code:
          mode="Airline" 'Default

            I've thought I had got the script to put everything in the correct place by using{Start_pos}, the secret being not to use {start_pos} for the first instance.I assume that sets the starting position for any following use of {start_pos}.

            with reference to the script highlighted in red, when I select from the radio box "Choice" I cannot get the two subsequent boxes (when selected) to be positioned in the same place on the dialog as each other, one always follows the other?

            any suggestions as to how to correct this?

              Re: Help Aligning entry boxes on a Dialog

              As far as I've come with Dialog, I always start a conditional area with {region} and {endregion}...I read it somewhere that's how to handle conditional areas. So each conditional (Choice) should be in it's own region, conditioned to show when condition = .T. For Me personally I use {condition_begin} and {condition_end} to "Nest" Conditional areas within other conditionals...this should be similar to what you want. I haven't tested it, just edited your code in the comment box...

              with reference to the script highlighted in red, when I select from the radio box "Choice" I cannot get the two subsequent boxes (when selected) to be positioned in the same place on the dialog as each other, one always follows the other?

              any suggestions as to how to correct this?

                No, that does not work either, it still uses the original {Start_pos}. the choice "ICAO CODE" is correct but choice "Full Operator Name" is blatted over the radio box

                  Hahaha... I'll try this again, this time I tested it. The best I could do, I tried to comment my progression, but after a while I stopped commenting. Try to follow how I separated the regions and also how I spaced out the conditional areas so I could understand it better. I did have to column break to make IAC box NEXT to the choices. And Condition_start and Condition_End help me to understand conditional areas placed within other conditional areas.... good luck, respond back asap... :) good night...

                    Re: Help Aligning entry boxes on a Dialog

                    Huh!


                    When I first copied the code into A5V7 it did not work, The airline choice worked just fine, but all the other options overwrote the Mode radio box!!

                    BUT

                    Somehow I managed to lose the closing curly bracket on the comments regarding the second conditional area (See below).

                    Code:
                    {comment=This Condition_End completes the Second Conditional Area, while the MAIN condition continues...}
                    {comment=Every REGION is conditioned.[B][COLOR="Red"]}[/COLOR][/B]

                    when I reran the script unknowingly without that curly bracket, all the options in the script were displayed perfectly :(

                    So what is happening here ???

                        Re: Help Aligning entry boxes on a Dialog

                        Yup! that works, also throws up a bug in the script compiler.

                        Code:
                        {comment=This Condition_End completes the Second Conditional Area, while the MAIN condition continues...}
                        {comment=Every REGION is conditioned....
                        {endregion}
                        the compiler does not show an error for the missing } and ignores the { at the start of the {endregion} in the next line but thinks the Comment finishes at the } of the {endregion}. When I ran without the closing } on the comment it ignored the next {endregion} and as I said worked just fine.

                        I've sent in a bug report.
