Max number of characters for a Text_Field

Classic Servoy
1

Hi All,

I tried searching the forum, but I couldn’t find an answer:

I have multiple input Text_Fields on my webclient’s form.
A field remark, for eample, can be only 50 characters long, now I want that you can only put 50 characters in the Text_Field.
I can’t find any setting to set the text_field to a maximum of 50.

(As alternative i can use the onDataChange to check if the length is higher then 50 and then show an error message, but I don’t want the customer to be able to enter more as 50.)

Thanks.

This should already be done automatically for fields that display a dataprovider that is an actual database column.

Which version of Servoy are you running on?

Hi,

I’m not using a database column as dataprovider, but a form variable.
I don’t know if it is also possible with this?

Unfortunately not.

Please file a feature request in our support system if you’d like to see this functionality in a future version.
