SC inputselect checkbox selection and style 2048

Post by jupe »

I noticed that when using inputselect checkbox selection with style 2048 (display filename only, not fullpath) that there seems to be a little unexpected behavior, here is a small example script, that hopefully demonstrates the issue successfully.

Code: Select all

	$data = folderreport("files:+{fullname}", "r", <xydata>);

	// WORKING CORRECTLY = ITEMS CHECKED & NO + SYMBOL IN RETURN
	text inputselect("All checkboxes checked correctly", $data, <crlf>, 2);

	// NON-WORKING = ITEMS ARE NO LONGER CHECKED WHEN USING STYLE 2048
	// IF MANUALLY SELECT ITEMS + SYMBOL PREFIX CONTAINED IN RETURN
	// AND ALL ITEMS ARE NOW RETURNED REGARDLESS OF SELECTION
	text inputselect("Now using style 2048 with same data, checkboxes aren't checked", $data, <crlf>, 2+2048);

	// CHECKBOXES CAN STILL BE PRE CHECKED VIA DATA MANIPULATION, BUT THEN THE RETURN INCLUDES + SYMBOL:
	$data = folderreport("files:{Path}+{Name}", "r", <xydata>);
	text inputselect(, $data, <crlf>, 2+2048);
I can understand the cause of the above, and know how to script around the issue, but to me this seems like a bug, or at least something that could possibly be fixable.
