How to pass $-parameters to the start-up panel for the Desktop UI?

Post by i.mak »

Hello!

If I want to set the start-up panel for the Desktop UI, I can use rootPanel setting in the [webClient] section of the config file:

Code: Select all

[webClient]
rootPanel = "start.pnl"
Tell me, please, how I can pass $-parameters to that panel.

Best regards, Ilya

You can't but for ULC UX you can do:

Code: Select all

[httpServer]
uiArguments = "-p start.pnl,$test:Ventil1"
as workarround you can make a new panel and open your target panel with $ parameters

create a new panel and in init do something like this:

Code: Select all

main()
{
   RootPanelOn("start.pnl", "Testpanel", makeDynString("$test:Ventil1"));
}

Code: Select all

[webClient]
rootPanel = "helper.pnl"
