This is regarding Radio frequency screens.

   Custom control, table control is not supported in RF screen development.

Currently, the screen was developed using custom control but it is not displaying in RF device hence we need to replace with input field/text field for displaying multiple lines of text

1) Currently values are coming from READ_TEXT ...how to populate this values in  multiple text/input field one after the other.

2) if i use a push button then how can input values change based on pressing push button values coming from read_text.

Kindly suggest the best possible solutions

Hi Rachel,

We had a similar requirement in our RF programs several years back and the consulting company had created a generic messages screen with multiple lines and then would split the incoming string into multiple tokens.  As far as having the field contents update when you hit a push button that simply requires the appropriate coding in the PAI and following PBO events that get triggered after the user action.

Thank you so much for your reply.

Since RF screen do not support Custom control (Text editor)....I have two options now

Option1 : Place 5 input/output UI element  with 35 characters in length .

Options 2 : Create a single output UI element along with  push button . When the push button is pressed output UI element is populated with text .

Step 1 : Values are currently coming from READ_TEXT .. I am planning to place the output of READ_TEXT  into a variable of CHAR2000 .

Step 2: remove unwanted characters from the variable( *, =....)

step 3 : Could anyone help me which function module can break the string into 35 characters & do a word wrap as well.

I have gone through RKD_WORD_WRAP...output only gives 3 variable of 35 characters in length. I need to have atleast 5 variables each having 35 characters
