input masks

[Bomma72]

Can you add input masks to label fields?  Looks like I will have to do that in the code behind right?  I don’t see how to do it however.  There doesn’t seem to be a key down event or something like that.

What’s an input mask in this case ? What characters are allowed ?

Yeah, for adding/changing the name of the patch.  I could always do it at the upload stage (meaning strip out the stuff that doesn’t translate, but it would be cool if I could just stop it on the key-up event)  This would be how I do it with Java.

There are 2 properties for a uiLabel that control that one is

“Allowed characters the user can input”, witch is what it says, type in the characters you allow

“Maximum length of the string a user can input”, that’s also self explanatory. If you need more control (regular expressions etc) you need to use LUA (there is a special callback triggered when a label changed, have a look at the DEMO – Request Program panel it utilizes the LUA callback to verify the contents of the label and informs the user if it’s ok or not.

Ok I was on the default download version for Mac which doesn’t have these options I think.

That was added a bit later.
