AxForm type

Namespace Form

The form namespace contains functions and objects for working with UI elements such as buttons, input fields, tables, and dialogs.

All visual elements have the following methods:

void setEnabled(bool enable) - if enable == true the element will be enabled, otherwise it will be disabled.
void setVisible(bool enable) - if enable is true the element will be visible, otherwise it will be hidden.
bool getEnabled() - returns true if the element is enabled.
bool getVisible() - returns true if the element is visible.

Connect

AxScript uses QT signal-slot technology. A signal is emitted when a particular event occurs. A slot is a function that is called in response to a particular signal. Qt's signals and slots mechanism ensures that if you connect a signal to a slot, the slot will be called with the signal's parameters at the right time. Signals and slots can take any number of arguments of any type. They are completely type safe.

You can connect as many signals as you want to a single slot, and a signal can be connected to as many slots as you need. It is even possible to connect a signal directly to another signal. (This will emit the second signal immediately whenever the first is emitted.)

form.connect(element elem, string signal, function(){}) - Creates a connection from the signal in the elem object to the function handler.

Example

let btn = form.create_button("Send signal");

form.connect(btn, "clicked", function(){
    ax.show_message("test", "Clicked signal");
});

let layout = form.create_vlayout();
layout.addWidget(btn);

let dialog = form.create_dialog("");
dialog.setLayout(layout);
dialog.exec()

Container

To retrieve data in JSON format from input elements, you must use a container object.

form.create_container()

Methods:

put

void container::put(string id, element elem);

This method adds an element elem with the given id to the container.

get

element container::get(string id);

This method gets an element from the container by the given id.

contains

bool container::contains(string id)

This method checks if an element with the given id exists in the container.

remove

void container::remove(string id)

This method removes the element with the given id from the container.

toJson

string container::toJson();

This method packs the data of all container elements into JSON format.

fromJson

void container::fromJson(string jsonString);

This method recovers the values of elements in a container from a JSON string jsonString.

Example

let tl1 = form.create_textline();
let tl2 = form.create_textline();
let tm3 = form.create_textmulti();
let btn = form.create_button("Get data");

let container = form.create_container()
container.put("line1", tl1)
container.put("lin2", tl2)

form.connect(btn, "clicked", function(){
    tm3.setText(container.toJson());
});

let layout = form.create_vlayout();
layout.addWidget(tl1);
layout.addWidget(tl2);
layout.addWidget(tm3);
layout.addWidget(btn);

let dialog = form.create_dialog("");
dialog.setLayout(layout);
