Placeholder
property for PowerScript controls
Applies to
SingleLineEdit controls
Description
The Placeholder property specifies a short description for the
expected value of the input field. The Placeholder value can be used as a
text label or hint; hence can help to reduce the number of UI
controls.
You will need to run the application to see the Placeholder value,
and the Placeholder value will not be displayed 1) if the Text property is
set (the Text value will be displayed first); or 2) when the input field
has focus.
Usage
In a painter
To specify the placeholder for a SingleLineEdit control:
-
Enter the desired text in the Placeholder field on the General
page of the control’s Properties view.
In scripts
The Placeholder property takes a string value.
The following line sets the placeholder value for a SingleLineEdit
control:
|
1 |
sle_1.placeholder = "Input the user name here" |
