Maybe this is really obvious, but I can't do it... how can my StringGadget know when I've pressed 'Enter' on it after typing some text?

HI,

If i remember well, the string gadget send a #PB_EventGadget when you press enter.
so you just have to check for it

Hope it helps...

Hey PB, this works for me...

Code: Select all

If OpenWindow(0, 10, 10, 200, 200, #PB_Window_SystemMenu, "Test")
  Repeat
    EventID.l = WaitWindowEvent()  
    
    If EventwParam()=13
      MessageRequester("","You Pressed Enter",0)
    EndIf 

  Until EventID = #PB_EventCloseWindow
EndIf
End

Hi Paul, unfortunately your example only works because there's no gadgets on the form.

When I added a StringGadget, your example doesn't work anymore...

Hmmm, you are correct.
Nothing is returned when the focus is on a StringGadget.
