Problem with dblclick and ui_dlg_box

[Willard]

I took this code out of the xdialog notes and tried to add the dbl click feature. However, the script never loads with I put the !select_* into the button area. What do you think I am doing wrong. It did load one time and never did again. When I remove this code all is good. Here is the code I am working with

ui_dlg_box("Catalog Selector "+Upper(name),;

{endregion2}|
{region16}{sp};{endregion16}|
{region3}
{lf};
;
;
;
;
{endregion3}|
{region20}{SP};{endregion20}|
{region4}
Catalog items added;
[.25,20list2_selected^#a_list2!selected_*] ;''here is prob
{line=1,0};

{endregion4}

{endregion1}
{endregion0}
|
%dlg%,

Hi Jack

I made a few cosmetic alterations but without any data I cant see what the problem is. Here is what I did and it looks just like the book. I had to remove +Upper(name) for me to make it work. Did you copy the example from teach yourself Xdialog, it is a very good way to learn and experiment.

ui_dlg_box("Catalog Selector "+Upper(name),
{endregion2}|
{region16}{sp};{endregion16}|
{region3}
{lf};
;
;
;
;
{endregion3}|
{region20}{SP};{endregion20}|
{region4}
Catalog items added;
[.32,20list2_selected^#a_list2!selected_*] ;
{line=1,0};

{endregion4}
{endregion1}
{endregion0}
%dlg%)

RE: Problem with dblclick and ui_dlg_box

you haven't included your %code% segment,so it's hard to know what you've done wrong. however, there's at least one syntax error:



it should read

[.25,20list1_select^#a_select!select_*];

then in your %code% section you have to make sure that you trap all the select_* events and only act on the _dblclick event. make sure you set a_dlg_button back to nil after the event. for example:


%code%)

Here is a little list box with double click that works. Peter is correct, it is more likely that the problem is in the code section.

Also, I would question your use of Select_ and Selection_ to trap the events. While it should not create a problem, I try to avoid the use of words that have special meaning in Alpha, like select.

Most of this code was generated by the genie and modified to trap the event.

'Create an XDialog dialog box to prompt for parameters.
DIM SHARED V_List as C
DIM SHARED varC_result as C
DIM a_V_List[4] as c
dim temp_list as c
temp_list =
{endregion};
%dlg%,

Thanks for the reply, I pretty sure my code is correct, that is why I place the dialog box portion for review,
the !********* is the part that prevents the dialog from appearing. I thought that maybe something else was needed to make this portion of button line to work

jerry's line below area not working for me
{sp=1}[.32,5V_List^#a_V_List!List_clk_*]

Is there noting missing? Jack

After reviewing jerry's comments, I found that I did not reset the dialog button to "" as necessary. Thanks for the great imput! Nice design tips as well.
