I'm trying to set a text field to display text when a group of two option buttons is set to Yes. (They are Yes and No radio buttons). I have them set so when checked, the value is 1.
When Yes is selected, text is supposed to be visible in the text field. When No is selected, I would like for the field to be blank.
Right now, when I run the test database, check Yes, and save the radio button looks like it's saving the Yes, but then reverts to having No checked.
I'm writing my hook in Perl. So far I have this in the Value Changed hook for the Yes radio button:
my $checked = $entity->GetFieldValue($fieldname)->GetValue();
if($checked eq "1"){
my $setCharge = " This text when check Yes!";
$entity->SetFieldValue("name_of_text_field", $setCharge);
}
the radio buttons are both SHORT_STRING as is probably evident by my string comparison.
I've tried setting the other radio button to 0 just to make sure it's not checked, but that seems redundant since only one radio button can be selected. I've tried writing a hook for the no Value Changed, but that didn't work either.
Ideas?

The Text Fields that Say 100 are the ones i'm referring to.
I have Text Fields that I don't want to be editable until a later point so I turned off User Interaction. However, I still want them to function as a button to go to another view. Is there anyway to turn off text input but still keep it as a button?
In Javascript code on the browser, given the name of a group of radio buttons, is there a way to directly find out which button is checked without iterating through each button one by one to check its checked property?
Yes with jQuery. If the name of the group is state, then:
$("[name=state]:checked").val()
I have a main form...imagine that...that for most of my users will be the only form they use. Naturally, it contains tabs with sub forms.
I have a navigation sub form on the left side of this form that changes based on the user's rights level. Currently, this sub form is all buttons...and 1 always is selected as the default tab stop for that form.
I don't want to highlight any of them at first...and I can remove the highlight by switching off Tab Stops for all buttons. However, I'm not sure that I want to remove that functionality all together...and it still highlights a button. I'd just like for there to not be a default button highlighted.
As you can see, Add Course is 'selected'. I can't seem to find the correct terminology to search for a way to do this. I tried using a smaller button set behind another button, but since it has the focus, it moves to the front. Using a text field with the same colors as the background shows the cursor in a random, blank area...not visually ideal.
I'm sure that there is someone here clever enough to have this figured out. Please enlighten me. I don't care if this can be handled in VBA code or through design view.
"Focus" is the word you're looking for - you don't want any visible control to have the focus when opening the form.
The easiest method is an invisible button: create a button with Transparent = True, and an empty OnClick (i.e. the button does nothing, even when accidentally clicked).
Move this button to the top in the Tab Order, so it has the focus when opening the form.
But if your users use TAB to walk through the buttons, there will be one position where the focus disappears (when circling around from the last to first control). I don't know if it will confuse them.
Create a button on the main form itself.
Named is cmdDummyButton with the following GotFocus event code.
Set the tab order property to 0 (ie first)
Make the button transparent.
This will cause no control on the form to have the focus when it starts up.
Private Sub cmdDummyButton_GotFocus()
Static IveHadFocusAlready As Boolean
If Not IveHadFocusAlready Then
Me.cmdDummyButton.Enabled = False
IveHadFocusAlready = True
End If
End Sub
Sweet.
When I want to know which radio buttons are selected in a panel in a MATLAB GUI, I use this line:
ChosenOption = get(handles.OptionPanel, 'SelectedObject');
where OptionPanel is the Tag of the panel where the radio buttons are located.
However, if I want to use checkboxes instead of radio buttons, is there any way to do the same?
Thank you.
You would typically get the Value property of each checkbox to determine whether it was checked or not.
Note that typically with checkboxes any, all, or none of the checkboxes may be selected (in contrast to radio buttons, where typically only a single radio button would be selected at any one time), so you would want to get the Value property of each checkbox separately. There's no equivalent of a uibuttongroup that you would use with radio buttons (although you can of course graphically group the checkboxes in a uipanel).
I have a php form for a website containing text fields which display values retrieved from my database and also a submit button. I would like the submit button to be disabled by default and to only be clickable if the user has made a change to one of the text fields in the form. However if they were to change it back to the default value, the button would automatically be disabled again. Any help is appreciated.
You need to use javascript. For each field, you must make a eventhandler that checks the value and then enables or disables your submit-button.
Declare a Variables for each Text box
Then assign the values that you Retrieving from database to the text box and a Variables...
At the time of Button_Click compare the Value of text box with the Variables
If BOTH are Same then there is no EDIT's occur
That's all
