Widget "Form controls" - how to use?

Ask for help
1

Hi,

I’m trying out the widget “Form controls” but I can’t see how I would get the data from the form. I tried to set an event mouseup on the widget and put an “answer” just to test, but nothing happens. The documentation on
https://docs.livecode.com/docs/LiveCode%20Script/Widgets/Form%20controls/
doesn’t give me any clue how to use it.

However, if I use another button and use the code
put the formValues of widget "Form controls" into aTest
then I can read the formValues. But I want to read the data when pressing the included “Submit” button.

Any ideas?

Thanks and regards,
Tom

Hi @tom I’d recommend trying on login instead of on mouseup as that’s the default action assigned to that button. We will also be improving our documentation soon so thank you for flagging this.
