Events on option row only works on numbers (not string values) #406

Closed Lendog closed 5 years ago

Lendog commented 6 years ago

Events doesn't work when string is used eg ... Option row values

no errors just doesn't work. Also tried many different variations

but when a number is used eg below it does work

... Option row values

Will investigate and confirm.

Can you try this with some text other than 'None' (eg N, NA, Nil or Absent - or even 'None ', i.e. with a space after - this tends to get stripped out when saved as a shapefile)

I have been able to use show/hide and set value events dependent on text input, but not if they use the string 'None', bizarrely enough - that gets interpreted as NULL (this warrants a separate issue).

Thanks for looking into it. This issue maybe able to be closed. For some reason it seems to be working fine now :-s even with 'None'

I'm using this at the moment and is working as it should optionrow

Possibly because its using ' ' instead of " " as per original screen grab .. although for memory I tried both. or possibly because this is the only event item now.

Anyway thanks for helping :)

Actually I just tested it with "None" - doesn't work. Tested it with 'None' and it works.

So possibly could be my inexperience with it :) ... sorry

Anyway thanks for the help. I might try to close the issue, you might have just resolved it for me :)

Actually any chance to get a string example in

http://roam-docs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/admin-guide/widgetevents/

to assist others. I can't see how to edit that page, so I'm not sure if I have the ability to do it.
