Hi there,
I need to execute an action when I exit from an EditString field. I found in the forum something, but - you know - I am a noob and need some further explanation. So, I wrote this message http://www.ultimatepp.org/forums/index.php?t=msg&th=4559 &goto=45067&#msg_45067 on a thread related to my question. To date I had no response, maybe because is a really dumb question. Could someone give me a hint?
Regards,
Giorgio

According to the mentioned topic, you could override LostFocus virtual function or just use proposed C++ template(s), e.g.:
// Create an object of EditString with WithLostFocus template
WithLostFocus<EditString> text;
// Assign some function to WhenLostFocus callback
text.WhenLostFocus = callback1(PromptOK, "LostFocus");

The more complete example follows:

Hi Ghost,
thank you for your reply. Your example was indeed detailed and I got it working. I also got to extend a window on my own application. The only problem is that I can reproduce the example when I build the window layout by myself, but I do not know how to add it to a window designed with the designer. I tried to add it using the "user class" function, but it throws an error when compiling. I tried also to use the instruction Add but I do not see the control in the window.
Regards,
Giorgio

Well, I did it, it was not so difficult Embarassed
