• Entry option.

Posted: **Sat Mar 29, 2008 3:26 pm**

I would be able to attribute a value to my entries. And I can't find the solution yet.

foreach entry in ( options )

		GFCheckBox(s_gump, 180, y_pos, 2360, 2361, 0, _entry_iter);
                GFCheckBox(s_gump, 200, y_pos, 2360, 2361, 0, _entry_iter);
                GFCheckBox(s_gump, 220, y_pos, 2360, 2361, 0, _entry_iter);

Each checkbox represent different options that I would be able to add to another option.

using _entry_iter above is simply duping the checkbox function as if I click one it's always the same answer. I need to know how to give my _entry_iter values as 1 2 or 3.

the _entry_iter only increases every time the foreach loops because its saying which iteration the foreach is on with the variable "entry". To get it to count up correctly in the way you want to use it, you'd have to do...

Code: Select all

var x_pos := 180;
foreach entry in (options)
  GFCheckBox(s_gump, x_pos, y_pos, 2360, 2361, 0, _entry_iter);
  x_pos := x_pos + 20; // (if on POL097) x_pos += 20
endforeach

I will try that right now, thank you for your answer.

Just to be sure, does the _entry_iter will return a different value with the foreach loops?

Code: Select all

GFPage(s_gump, 1);
	var num_options := options.Size();
	var y_pos := 110;
        var i;
	foreach entry in ( options )

                var x_pos := 200;
                for( i:=1; i<=7; i+=1 )
                          GFCheckBox(s_gump, x_pos, y_pos, 2360, 2361, 0, _entry_iter);
                          x_pos += 50;
                          SleepMS(2);
                endfor

		GFTextLine(s_gump, 20, y_pos, 1153, entry);
		y_pos := y_pos+20;

		if ( _entry_iter % 15 == 0 && _entry_iter < num_options )
			GFAddButton(s_gump, 590, 385, 0xA92, 0xA93, GF_PAGE_BTN, s_gump.cur_page+1);
			GFPage(s_gump, s_gump.cur_page+1);
			GFAddButton(s_gump, 590, 110, 0xA90, 0xA91, GF_PAGE_BTN, s_gump.cur_page-1);
			y_pos := 110;
		endif

		SleepMS(2);
	endforeach

If you understand, the CheckBox Button are different x value repeatly for y

Maybe this clears it.

Code: Select all

var list := array{ "a", "b", "c" };

foreach value in list
    print(_value_iter + ": " + value);
    // 1: a
    // 2: b
    // 3: c
endforeach

list := dictionary{ "a" -> 1, "b" -> 2, "c" -> 3 };

foreach value in list
    print(_value_iter + ": " + value);
    // a: 1
    // b: 2
    // c: 3
endforeach

In foreach, _variable_iter is the index of the array (dictionary) that identifies the element it is just looping.

Thanks a lot. It makes it clear now.

I understand now the iteration applied in the foreach loop. But I still have some headache with my question:

Code: Select all

GFPage(s_gump, 1);
	var num_options := options.Size();
	var y_pos := 110;
        var i;
	foreach entry in ( options )

                var x_pos := 210;
                for( i:=1; i<=7; i+=1 )
                          GFCheckBox(s_gump, x_pos, y_pos, 2360, 2361, 0, _entry_iter);
                          x_pos += 50;
                          SleepMS(2);
                endfor

		GFTextLine(s_gump, 30, y_pos, 1153, entry);
		y_pos := y_pos+20;

		if ( _entry_iter % 14 == 0 && _entry_iter <num_options>= 1 && key <= num_options )
			values.Append(options[key]);
		endif
		SleepMS(2);
	endforeach

Options defined are a list of proprieties in an array. The checkboxes needs to send a special event to only the good option.

With the above code _entry_iter will simply loop to the next entry wich is normal but not exactly what I need. I tried to use numbers as if the value of the check box will return if checked. But it stills loop into the options given.

ex.:
entry1 checkbox1 checkbox2 checkbox3 checkbox4 checkbox5
entry2 checkbox1 checkbox2 checkbox3 checkbox4 checkbox5
entry3 checkbox1 checkbox2 checkbox3 checkbox4 checkbox5
[...]

If checkbox1 is checked, it will return a rename..
If checkbox2 is checked, it will return a new color..
If checkbox3 is checked, it will return a new graphic..

(that's an exemple)
