Remarks
User:AHanson, 2023.12.14:
This appears to work on standard resource records only and not with parametric object records when tested in v2024. Returns 0 and None. Use VS:GetLocalizedPluginChoice instead for Plug In Objects.
Example
PROCEDURE Example; FUNCTION TestFunc(h :HANDLE) :BOOLEAN; VAR arrayText : ARRAY[1..3] OF STRING; CurPopUpInfo : ARRAY[ 1..100 ] OF STRING; numPopUpValues : INTEGER; i : INTEGER; BEGIN {create new record} NewField( 'Format-1', 'FieldNamePopUp', '22222', 17, 0 ); arrayText[1] := '11111'; arrayText[2] := '22222'; arrayText[3] := '33333'; {add new popup values to FieldNamePopUp} PopupSetChoices( 'Format-1', 'FieldNamePopUp', arrayText ); {get popup values and print them} PopupGetChoices( 'Format-1', 'FieldNamePopUp', numPopUpValues, CurPopUpInfo ); FOR i:=1 TO numPopUpValues DO BEGIN AlertInform ( CurPopUpInfo[ i ], '', FALSE ); END; {clear popUp values} {NewField( 'Format-1', 'FieldNamePopUp', '22222', 17, 0 );} END; BEGIN ForEachObjectInLayer(TestFunc, 0, 0, 4); END; RUN(Example);
