Input dialog - variable problem...

[JTS]

Hi. Im creating an Single choice dialog, where you can choose the text you have copied. There is a problem.

I have 3 global variables: global_clpb (List), global_lbIndex (Integer), global_lbIndexSelect (Integer)

First trigger - executed if clipboard changed.
Second - action (Copy text from clipboard)
Third: Script >

Code: Select all

addElement(global_clpb, global_lbIndex, clip_data);
global_lbIndex  =  length(global_clpb);
global_lbIndexSelect  =  (global_lbIndex  -  1);

The copied text is now added to the global_clpb.

-------------Now appears the Single chocie dialog:

The problem here is: in the editing-menu of this dialog I have list values: {global_clpb,listformat,comma}
Default value: {global_lbIndexSelect}

The idea: It should automatically select last copied text in the menu, but it doesn't do it. Why? Bug?

Hi,

The field Default value should be set to the actual text that should be selected, not the index.
Something like this could work if variable clip_data contains the text that should be selected:
{clip_data}
