The instruction StringRequestwith the numerical parameters don't works under AmigaOS3.9, open a mistake windows with message:
"Use of incorrect parameters for this comment"
Only happend this problem with #NUMERICAL parameter under AmigaOS3.9 under MorphOS and Windows it works fine, the other parameter #ALT works fine in the three systems.
Code: Select all
@DISPLAY {Title="Number Bug", Width=640, Height=480}
Number$=StringRequest("Write a number", "Enter a number:", "", #NUMERICAL, 5) ;This line doesn't work with AmigaOS3.9.
;Number$=StringRequest("Write a number", "Enter a number:", "", #ALL, 0, False) ;This line yeah.
TextOut(#CENTER, #CENTER, Number$)
EscapeQuit(True)
Repeat
WaitEvent
Forever

Code: Select all
- Fix [OS3]: StringRequest() didn't work with #NUMERICAL in case a string that didn't contain a number was specified as the default string
As a workaround, just pass a string that contains a number in the third parameter, e.g "0".

Well I found other problem in StringRequest and password field, when you assign the valor True under Windows works correct show points instead of charapters, ok this is the objetive but under AmigaOS 3.9 only shows spaces, well it also is good but under MorphOS shows the charapter that you are writing, example:
Password$=StringRequest("Password enter", "Enter your password", "", ALL, 0, True)
In each system an instruction works differently.

This is a feature.
StringRequest() is implemented via reqtools.library and on OS3 it behaves like that...

But under MorphOS it shows the charapter write instead of points also it is for reqtools.library?

That's a bug in MorphOS or in reqtools.library then...

Yes it does, look in the SYS:MorphOS/Libs/, and I also noticed this bug once.. should report to the MorphOS team.
