Text repeating in all tabs

Post by Terryfic » Tue May 07, 2013 12:11 pm

Hi All. I'm very new to LiveCode. I have created a tab panel with 8 tabs and grouped them so that the same textboxes appear on each tab. When I test this and type text into a textbox on one tab, the same text appears in the same textbox on every tab. What I actually want is for each card to have different entries in their textboxes. Am I missing something very obvious here?

Regards

Terry

Hi Terry,

this is a "feature" :D

No, select the fields in your group and uncheck "sharedText" for the fields in the inspector!
This way, they will be able to store and display DIFFERENT text on each card,
where that groupd is placed.


Best

Klaus
