TextGadget()

Syntax

Result = TextGadget(#Gadget, x, y, Width, Height, Text$ [, Flags])

Creates a Text gadget in the current GadgetList. If #PB_Any is used as '#Gadget' parameter, the new gadget identifier will be returned as 'Result'. A TextGadget is a basic text area for displaying, not entering, text.

The content can be changed with the command SetGadgetText() and can be obtained with GetGadgetText().

'Flags' are always optional and can be composed of one of the following constants:

  #PB_Text_Center : The text is centered in the gadget.
  #PB_Text_Right  : The text is right aligned.
  #PB_Text_Border : A sunken border is drawn around the gadget.

Note: This Gadget doesn't receive any user events, and GadgetToolTip() can't be used with it.

Example:

  If OpenWindow(0,0,0,270,160,#PB_Window_SystemMenu|#PB_Window_ScreenCentered,"TextGadget") And CreateGadgetList(WindowID(0))
    TextGadget(0, 10, 10,250,20,"TextGadget Standard (Left)")
    TextGadget(1, 10, 70,250,20,"TextGadget Center",#PB_Text_Center)
    TextGadget(2, 10, 40,250,20,"TextGadget Right",#PB_Text_Right)
    TextGadget(3, 10,100,250,20,"TextGadget Border",#PB_Text_Border)
    TextGadget(4, 10,130,250,20,"TextGadget Center + Border",#PB_Text_Center|#PB_Text_Border)
    Repeat : Until WaitWindowEvent()=#PB_Event_CloseWindow
  EndIf
