Forget about default textbox restrictions, you can create sprites atop of the textbox

Hello,

I wanted to know the way to use textbox and mathematical operations.

For example:

Input value (in textbox)?

==> SetText (textbox value + 2)

It's pretty simple, but I can not find how to transcribe this with construct 2 code.

Thank you for your help.

Set textbox text to str(float(textbox.text)+2)

if you work with whole numbers numbers, int works as well ofc

Hello mindfaQ,

I tried, but it does not work, or I do not put the correct syntax.

Would you an example .Capx ?

Thank you.

Hello,

Well, I think I found the solution :

graphicwindows.fr/forum/SCROLLING%20FRONTAL.capx
But I'm facing a small problem again ...

I would make sure that the value entered in text box can be detected and what is more, to say that if it is different or equal to a threshold, then the value is 0.

You see what I mean?

If anyone can help me on the file, making such corrections.

Thank you.
