RPG 2 inventory question (solved)

I've banged my head for almost 10 hours now, to no avail. Where the heck, and how the heck would I add a value, or increase the value of weight in the inventory screen?

please, please .. I've poured through the tutorials and they just don't discuss this topic.

what do you mean add/increase value of weight?

you want to calculate total weight of items in the inv?

just iterate all elements and sum their weight
Flt weight=0; FREPA(items)weight+=items[i].weight;

No, I mean updating the actual text field on the inventory gobj. There are two test fields, one for gold and one for weight. Example, when inventory update is called, I want to set the weight text field to 10. I've looked at all the tutorials and played around on my own, but can't find how to update/write to the text field. If anyone can show me how to do that, or where thats documented in the tutorials, I'd be grateful.

check TextLine header file

I will. Thanks. I don't mind learning with a point in the right direction. I also ge errors when I create a new textline object, but I'll start a new thread for that. smile

Thanks.

That worked - thanks. (Still a bit painful, some better documentation might help)

How do I convert Int to a string format that will be accepted by the set function for text boxes?

Code:

Igoldval += 20;

   std::string s;

   std::stringstream out;

   out << Igoldval;

   s = out.str();

   gobjs.getText("Gold").set(s);

s isn't recognized for "set"

try S+s

S+s doesn't work. It only takes a real number, not a variable. I did figure it out though:

Code:

U64 Igoldval;

Str Tgoldval;

Igoldval += 20;

Tgoldval=(Igoldval);

gobjs.getText("Gold").set(Tgoldval);
