[Xerte] RE: Tries limit setup

Aha.
And it only forces the debug to the front on the first debug trace it hits. After that it stays in background.
That's OK, Can't live without a debug window.
Sort of like AW's "package it and it will work fine" thingy.
:-)

>Try typing rootIcon in
there

Double aha.
Sweet.

The focus is getting set to the input field on the debug window:
that debugs an expression back to you from inside Xerte. Try typing rootIcon in
there and press enter. Useful for checking stuff as you go.

It's
a beautiful thing.

Thanks Julian.



Just one other whinge while I'm at it.

I preview, text entry does not have focus, that's OK, I know I could set it.



I click in text entry and type "L" then Enter.

It executes.



I hit Enter again.

I get :undefined in the Trace

Does not execute.



I click in entry field again.

Enter.

It executes.



Enter.

It executes.



etc



Where in the ether is the flow going on that first go-around?

I’ve just fixed it so that
the enter keypress when the textentry is set to * increments attempts.

 

Does it work now?

Sure, I'll take a peek at the code.

But am I doing something wrong or is it just not doing what's on the can?

No, it’s just we might have some
code here that does what you want, I don’t think it has to be in a template.

Patrick, are you saying I need some template code to accomplish the tries/text
entry combination? And the tries firing on the specified limit?



LDAP?

Isn't that something you use for sealing drafty windows?

I don’t think so, as he have a
template here which does something like what you are describing I think. I
could send you the template file for that? Have a pick at it?

 

Sadly the template type people
are all away, and you have me.

 

Would you like to discuss LDAP?

Hmm, am I doing a no-no here?



Now I have a text entry, a button and a tries limit set to 2.



The button will trigger the tries limit, but only on the 3rd hit.

The text entry will not trigger the tries limit, no matter if there is a
pattern or a * in there.



I'm crestfallen.

I have an interaction with a text entry (*) and a tries limit.

The entry is tripping, can't seem to trigger the tries limit.

Anything to look out for?



Thnx.
