How to add text to text ?

[Basseman]

Hello fellow Clickers !!

I have a little problem..

My layout is like this..

I have a button, a textbox and and a combo box on my screen..
I also have the string parser extension but i think it has nothing to do with my problem.
I have set that users selects a text in the combo box presses the button and the selected text in the combo box adds to the textbox..
The only problem is that when i select a new text in the combo box it replaces the old one in the textbox..

I want them to add to the other so it becomes a long text..

Hope you understad what i mean =)

Cheers

Hello Basseman,


You can use Edittext$( "Edit Box" ) + "StringToAdd" to add the string. I made a simple example. Is this what you need?


AddText.mfa

Maybee you know a good and easy way to add an Undo button ?
So when pressed the last added text removes ?

Basseman,

I made an example. Edit Box has an undo condition implemented, but I don't know if is sufficient for you. You can do multiple undo levels using a table, if you need it.


AddText 2 with undo.mfa

Thanks alot, this would be sufficient for now =)
