Rule testing in Dialog Editor

Post by tofutim »

I have some rules in my dialog, in particular on responding to $REMOVE$. How do I test $REMOVE$ = true?

Dear Tofutim,

- add a Label control to your dialog
- set the caption property of the control to $REMOVE$
- then create a rule to check the caption property of the control if TRUE or FALSE.

*NOTE
To hide the control, set its "Visible" property to FALSE (... once you checked that everything works as expected).

I have that, what I mean is how can I check for $REMOVE$ = TRUE when testing the Dialog (without actually running the setup)

I'm sorry, but you can't do that when testing the dialog.
