JMP 15: get function doesn't work with modal windows

Fiona_Baines — Fri, 09 Jun 2023 23:28:39 GMT

If you try this script (obtained from the scripting index in JMP 15)

Names Default To Here( 1 );
New Window( "Example",
	<<modal,
	numbox = Number Edit Box( 0 )
);
Print( numbox << Get );

and edit the number box you get this error:

deleted object reference: numbox << Get in access or evaluation of 'Glue' , Names Default To Here( 1 ); /*###*/New Window( "Example",
	<<modal,
	numbox = Number Edit Box( 0 )
); /*###*/Print( numbox << Get ) /*###*/;

This used to work in JMP 13, how do you now get values from editable boxes in JMP 15?

Here is how you need to code your script in JMP 15

Names Default To Here( 1 );
New Window( "Example",
	<<modal,
	numbox =
	Number Edit Box(
		0,
		10,
		<<SetFunction(
			Function( {this},
				numbox = this << get
			)
		)
	)
);
Print( numbox );

Could also use the return results.

Names default to here(1);
nw = New Window( "Example",
	<<modal,
	<<Return Result, 
	numbox = Number Edit Box( 0 )
);
//changed the numbox to 1

show(nw); // {numbox = 1, Button(1)}

Alternatively, use <<onClose to grab all your results from the window. You can also use <<onOpen to intialise values and <<onValidate to validate inputs.

NewWIndow("Example", <<modal,
    <<onClose(
        value = numbox << get;
    ),
    numbox = NumberEditBox(0)
);
