addTextWidget, and database for fields...

[GrimmSpector]

modifying the corerpg set into a new ruleset, still learning.

Look at this piece of code:

	<template name="string_labeled">
		<stringfield>
			<font>sheettext</font>
			<lineoffset default="on">1</lineoffset>
			<script>
				labelwidget = nil;
			
				function onInit()
					if labelres then
						labelwidget = addTextWidget("sheetlabelinline", string.upper(Interface.getString(labelres[1])));
					else
						labelwidget = addTextWidget("sheetlabelinline", string.upper(label[1]));
					end
					if labelwidget then
						local w,h = labelwidget.getSize();
						labelwidget.setPosition("bottomleft", w/2, h/2-4);
					end
				end
			</script>
		</stringfield>
	</template>

Can't find any documentaton on addTextWidget, hoping someone can point me in the right direction.

In addition, this template is being used to implement strings, I just want to confirm that with the inheritance, when you implement this as a control, that the database node would be parent.name, where parent is the databasenode attached to the window class, and the name is the name property of the string_labeled element we're using. Excuse me if my terminology is imperfect.

Thanks!

Assuming the string_labeled control is directly in the window instance (i.e. not in a subwindow or a windowlist) then yes.

Didn't think to look in widgetcontainer...thanks so much Trenloe, seems I'm on the right path!
