Change the value of TMsgBar() at run-time
Posted: Wed May 13, 2015 05:20 PM

To All

I would like to be able to change the value of 'set message' (TMsgBar()) at runtime. The only way I have found to do that is to re-issue the TMsgBar():New .. which works .. but the message bar 'blinks' when I do this.

Any way to just change the value of TMsgBar() without using the :New method?

Thanks
Rick Lipkin

ps .. :SetMsg() only sends a temporary text to the MsgBar

Rick,

oMsgBar:cMsgDef = "New text"
oMsgBar:Refresh()

Thank you .. I had to prefix the Mdi Window object to get it to work.

Code (fw): Select all Collapse

oWindMain:oMsgBar:cMsgDef := xMessage,oWindMain:oMsgBar:ReFresh(),;

Rick,

Just FYI, you can always use the wndMain() function which returns the main window object. So you can do:

wndMain():oMsgbar...

This prevents you from having to pass the main window object to functions or class methods.
