Hello, I just want to do in my simple app is when the user type admin and password it will go to the next card. in my code, I will assign a default username (admin) and password (12345). I noticed that there is a different approach when using the widget native field compared to a regular field. hope you can help me guys. thanks, in an advance

There are two ways to create an Android field. The first way is to use mobileControlCreate. The second way is to use the field widget in the tool palette which you drag onto the card. Your image looks like you are using the widget, but the code looks like you are creating a native field by script. You can't mix the two.
You need to write scripts that read the user input which you'd probably do in the Enter button. When the user taps the button, get the text of the fields and see if it is correct. The syntax is:
You can see all the messages and properties in the dictionary if you search for "Android native field".

Hello Jacque,
Thanks for the information. most of the example I saw in the internet they are using this "mobileControlCreate". I'm trying the second way you said. Is there a example or link using this syntax in android?

It's simple enough that I doubt there is a lesson. Drag a field widget to the card and name it "user". Drag another to the card and name it "password".
In the Enter button, create a mouseUp handler.
Code: Select all
on mouseUp
put the text of widget "user" into tUser
put the text of widget "password" into tPass
- - here, compare the values to the correct responses
- - and take action if they are correct
end mouseUp

Hi Jacque,
there is wrong in my previous code instead "put" i typed the "get" that's why it's not working. this is now ok. Thanks again and stay safe.

Hi lemodizon,
do this:
Code: Select all
...
## If you do not have an ELSE case for this IF -> if EditProd is "EditProd" then
## you should avoid many IF THENs, this makes the script better readable!
if EditProd <> "EditProd" then
exit mouseup
## or what handler we are currently in
end if
## Now check hilite:
put the dgHilitedLine of group "DataProd" into tLineToEdit
if tLineToEdit = empty then
beep
Answer info "Please select a Product name to EDIT INFORMATION"
exit mouseup
## See above
end if
## It is easier to work with an array, since datagrids do this, too, internally!
put the dgDataOfline[tLineToEdit] of grp "DataProd" into tArray
## This array tArray has the names of the columns as its KEYS, so we can easily
put tArray["price"] into tPrice
put tArray["productname"] into tProdName
## etc. for all infos from the datagrid
## Change the name if they do not fit your column name, I am only guessing from the screenshot.
## Widget are a different beast so we need to set THE TEXT and not "put into...":
set the text of widget "ProdPrice" of cd "EditProd" to tPrice
set the text of widget "ProdName" of cd "EditProd" to tProdName
## etc. see above...
go to card "EditProd"
...
Best
