Adding text

Post by ivaho » Sun Mar 25, 2012 7:22 pm

Hi

I have a scolling text filed with some lines of text.
I can add these lines to for example selectedfile (add selected text of me to selectedfile)

Can i add some extra text to selectedfile afterwards?

Do you mean:

put the selectedText of me after selectedFile?

Read about the "after" keyword in the dictionary. Make sure you also understand "before" and "into". Experiment a bit.

You can do anything you can imagine with text in LiveCode. Anything.

I have put the selected file from my list into selectedfile
And want to add some extra text after the selected already in selectedfile.

Think it would be something like
Put extratext after selectedfile

I'll read up into "after" "into" "before"
