*Label Command

CommandWidth 250
CommandHeight 35
CommandX 500
CommandY 500
CommandImage command-bg.png

CommandMoveable
CommandMoveModifierKey ".none"

CommandFont "Century Gothic"
CommandFontColor ffffff

CommandTextEditBox 0 0 100%



Here's the full code for the label I'm working on. Ultimately it's going to be an command-type thing but right now I just want to be able to type in it. Is there something I'm doing wront with that last line that is preventing me from being able to type in it?

Are you by chance loading an lsxcommand at the same time? If you are, try using a different label name. The "Command" prefix is used by lsxcommand and could be confusing things.

Also, note that the actual editbox will be in the top half of that label (it won't cover the label's height), since you're not specifying a font size or editbox padding.

I tested that without loading an lsxcommand, and it worked perfectly fine for me.

These are the modules I'm using:

vtray-1.06
jdesk-0.73
popup2-2.1.4
tasks-0.96
xlabel-3.4.1
ckHotspots-2.3
lstransparent-1.0.0.9
*NetLoadModule rainlendar-0.18

(Not lsxcommand)

Should I be able to type directly into the label - right now I can move it, but not type anything. I tried specifying a font face and size, but it didn't make a difference.


Is it worthwile to just try the whole thing with the new build of xlabel?

CommanderTextEditBox 22 2 $Commanderwidth-24$ #l
CommanderTextEditBoxPadding 2

was my config for xLabel-3.4.2 (I dont think there were many differences between 3.4.1 and 3.4.2)

I assume you have looked at the readme for all the texteditbox related stuff? (there is a dedicated page in the .chm)

Loading this, and only this, it works perfectly fine for me:
OTSMajorVersion 2
OTSMinorVersion 0

ThemeName "test"
ThemeAuthor "xcal"

LSImageFolder "$ThemeDir$Images"

*NetLoadModule jdesk-0.73
*NetLoadModule xpopup-1.1.9
*NetLoadModule xlabel-3.4.1

xpopupcompatibilitymode
xpopupusesolidcolors
xpopupuseentrysolidcolors
xpopupentryfontleftborder 20
xpopuptopborder 20
xpopupautomenubreak

*Label Command
CommandWidth 250
CommandHeight 35
CommandX 500
CommandY 500
CommandImage test.png
CommandMoveable
CommandMoveModifierKey ".none"
CommandFont "Century Gothic"
CommandFontColor ffffff
CommandTextEditBox 0 0 100%


I think you probably have something else in your config messing it up.

works for me that way too.
weird....

Now that I've gone back and loaded the old version of the theme it's working again. Maybe I had some gloabl label setting that I took out.

Anyway, thanks for both your help.
