QB64 PE and Inform PE numeric input box

[Willi Grundmann]

Hi,

I am learning QB64 Phoenix Edition and Inform PE with the intention to do a hobby project.

In my test GUI I have a numeric input box.

How can I pass in QB64 PE the value of the numeric input box to a variable? I could not find it in the Inform PE examples.

Is there a way to get a manual for QB64 and Inform?

Welcome to the QB64-PE forums.

Use the Value property of the control to get / set the value. So, if your numeric text box control name is foo, then you can use:

Code: (Select All)

x = Control(foo).Value ' get

Control(foo).Value = x ' set

See the attachment in the following post for a complete example.

@Willi Grundmann you may be interested to know QB64pe has _InputBox$()

Code: (Select All)

myNum = Val(_InputBox$("Demo _INPUTBOX$([title$][, message$][, defaultInput$])", "enter a number please", "10"))
Print "Your number squared is"; myNum ^ 2
