Hide field on preopenstack

[ali yehia]

I made stack and card inside it. the card has many fields. I need hide some fields and show it in certain event.

I write code

preOpenStack

hide field "t98"

end preOpenStack


But still t98 appears

What do I do?

Um . . .

try this in the card script:

on preOpenCard
hide fld "t98"
end preOpenCard

it works!

Hi.

What Richmond said, and the reason is that the preOpenStack message fires before the card loads. So it is more prudent to put your handler in a place where it is comfortable.

Hi Ali,

you forgot the highly important ON in your first script:

Code: Select all

preOpenStack
   hide field "t98" 
end preOpenStack

This way, the "preopenstack" message does NOT get triggered at all!

Code: Select all

ON preOpenStack
   hide field "t98" 
end preOpenStack

Best
