RapaGUI Textentry Bug
Posted: Fri Nov 22, 2024 3:29 pm
I am trying to write a program that has a Password to login, I can get it to work when entering the password in a Textentry object and then pressing the Login button. If the password is invalid, it clears the Textentry object and sets it as the ActiveObject, all good. But when I have Notify="Acknowledge" set for the Textentry object, enter a in valid password and press return/enter, it does not work like clicking the Login button.
Here is the simplest code I could make that reproduces the error.
Once I enter an incorrect password and press enter it will tell me how many trys I have left, press the OK button on the error message, and the Textentry object clears and I can enter about 2 letters before the cursor disappears.
I have tried turning Off notifications but that made no difference. Adding in the Requester seem to help a bit but it still did not work like hitting the Login button.
I have spent a lot of time trying all sorts of work arounds but with no joy.
Hope I have explained it good enough for you.
Cheers
Leo
