Well I'm working in the weird wonderful world of modal stacks, where
you can't really change and debug in real time....
There's a bit of 'you can't get there from here.. here..
I have a custom list dialog that's almost done.
Goal: I want to be able to have NO selection in the list field happen
before the stack opens, by using 0 or empty in the variable tLineState
I have a list field 'kMainField' on a modal dialog
This preopenstack handler in the cd 1 script of the stack will set
the hilitedlines with line 6 of the dialogdata = "1,4,6"
When I put "1,4,6" into dialogdata then modal the stack
--- this selects lines 1,4,6 invisibly and the stack opens with those
lines selected....
on preopenstack
put line 6 of the dialogdata into tLineState
set the hilitedlines of fld kMainField to it
end preopenstack
after the stack opens, I can do this in the message box:
set the hilitedlines of fld kMainField to 0
or...
set the hilitedlines of fld kMainField to empty
and unselect the line
however, if I try to pass a 0 or empty through line 6 of dialogdata,
line 1 of the list is still selected.
if I use a custom property as a flag like this:
on preopenstack
put line 6 of the dialogdata into tLineState
IF (tLineState is not empty) AND (tLineState is not 0)
THEN
set the hilitedlines of fld kMainField to it
set the hLines of this stack to true
ELSE
set the hLines of this stack to false
END IF
end preopenstack
and then in the stack script use this handler:
ON openstack
IF the hlines of this stack is false
THEN
set the hilitedlines of fld "listField" to empty
END IF
END openstack
I can get the line to unselect, however it's selected for a second
before it un-selects...
This looks like crap though.
using "send in time" doesn't work either.
Is this a bug?
I can do other things like delete a line from the field from the
preopenstack handler or just about anything else... why not this?
by the way.... did you know that dialogdata can't be an array? Bummer.
thanks for any suggestions...
