Dynamic field type in form + Notebook issue

[Fabio M.]

Hi guys,

I have 2 issues with Yad, let me describe here:

First one, I'm trying to create a form with a dynamic field type,
something similar to a "conditional format". What I have in mind is,
starting from a form like this:

yad --form --field="Question:CB" "Don't provide info!Provide the
following info" --field="Answer:RO" "Insert info here:"

making the --field="Answer:LBL" automatically and dynamically shifting
to --field"Answer:text" when ComboBox selected option is the second
(Provide the following info) instead of the first (Don't provide
info).

If you have some idea, just let me know :)

Second issue, when I use a Notebook dialog (basically the example on
the man) I bump into a "yad: cannot create shared memory for key
12345" error message. I can't guess what I'm doing wrong.

I'm using Yad last version from svn, in a bash environment.

this is impossible right now. i don't handle changes in form fields.
only buttons fields can change the current values of a form

can you create a piece of shared memory with ipcmk -M 1024?

So I could do a dynamic shift by a button? can you please share an example?

> can you create a piece of shared memory with ipcmk -M 1024?

I've tried right now, with no luck :(

Here's the result:
ipcmk -M 1024
Shared memory id: 2261013
./test.sh
yad: cannot create shared memory for key 12345: file exists


Thanks for the support :)

#! /bin/sh

yad --form \
--field="Button1:btn" '@echo "3:button 1 is pressed"' \
--field="Button2:btn" '@echo "3:button 2 is pressed"'\
--field="Answer" "initial"

all button values, started from '@' means to parse output of command,
and if some strings starts with 'N:', sets the value of field N to
appropriate string. in a command you may use substitution '%N' for
getting a current value of N'th field

can you show me output of ipcs -m, and try to use a different key, not 12345?

I've fixed this, it was a ridiculous typo -_-

Again, thanks a lot for the support! And of course keep on with this
great project :)

Hi. I'm still getting this error :

     ./myscript.sh

   yad: cannot create shared memory for key 12345: file exists

   As you asked this question:

   "can you create a piece of shared memory with ipcmk -M 1024? "

I've tried right now, and here's the result:

 

 root:# ipcmk -M 1024

 

 Shared memory id: 2261013

 

root:# ./myscript.sh

yad: cannot create shared memory for key 12345: file exists
 

  Can you please help me out with this?

   Thanks.

yad --form \                                                                                                              
    --field="Button1:btn" '@echo "3:button 1 is pressed"' \                                                                
    --field="Button2:btn" '@echo "3:button 2 is pressed"'\                                                                
    --field="Answer" "initial"

Hi,
Is it possible to parse more than one output to different fields of the form. This is what I'm trying to do

yad --form \
    --field="Customer name" ""\
    --field="Click here if registered owner is same as above":BTN "@echo '3:%1' && @echo '4:Self'" \
    --field="Registered owner" "" \
    --field="Relation of customer with registered owner":CB 'Friend!Father!Mother!Wife!Son!Daughter'

What I need here is, on clicking the button, parse the value of field one to the third field and value of field fourth as the string "Self". Unfortunately, using && operator doesn't work.
Is there a correct way to do that?
Thanks in advance.

[John G]

yad --form \
    --field="Customer name" "" \

    --field="Click here if registered owner is same as above":BTN '@bash -c "echo 3:%1; echo 4:Self"' \
    --field="Registered owner" "" \
    --field="Relation of customer with registered owner":CB 'Friend!Father!Mother!Wife!Son!Daughter!Self'

[Mohanish Goel]

Thanks.

Though this works as asked, parsing the string "Self" to a combo-box appends it to the list of combo-box options, while keeping the string "Friend" as the field text.

Is there any solution to this?

YAD version: 0.27.0

Haverá YouTube tried "^self"?
