condition == in visible ?

slinuxgeek · 2012-03-19 11:36

There are two buttons (or other controls which has some label/text on it which we can read).

and I want that if button1 has label "Music" then only button2 should be visible.

in button2:
<visible> what to write here </visible>

can we write something like this in button2:

<visible> control(idButton1).label =="Music" </visible>

Thanks for Help.

checkout stringcompare

Thank You the function worked !!

But we can not read a control's label like this -> control(idButton1).label
how can we do that?

Control.GetLabel(CONTROL_ID)

So you'll want to use -

PHP Code:

<visible>StringCompare(Control.GetLabel(CONTROL_ID),$LOCALIZE[3])</visible> 

Note the use of localize from the language string so it's universal.

@ jmarshall :
How will I tell, you about wiki ?
means should I message you privately or by posting new thread in forum?
Thank You

Best is posting a thread, with the bit you don't understand, and (if you know the answer) what you think it should say to make it better.

After you've done a few of them, you can start correcting it yourself in the wiki.
