Hi Manisha,
Just do a little behavior to filter the inputs onthe field, something
like:
property gpdlMaxCharCnt
property pMember
on beginSPrite me
pMember = sprite(me.spriteNum).member
end -- beginPSrite
on keyDown me
if (pMember.text.char.count < gpdlMaxCharCnt) then
pass
end if
stopEvent
end -- end keyDown handler
on getPropertyDescriptionList me
propL = [:]
proL[#gpdlMaxCharCnt] = [\
#comment : "max nb of chars",\
#format : #integer,\
#default : 20,\
#range : [#min : 1, #max : 256]\
]
return propL
end
Note that this keyDown script is very simple... you should ask a test to
pass also the arrows keys, DELETE and BACKSPACE even if the number of
max chars is already reached
HTH,
