Hello,
I am running on an old version of realBasic (2011 R3) & I am trying to work with control arrays, mainly with lines.
So i have made an array of lines & positioned them nicely but when I try to adjust the color of an individual line (with l(13).LineColor=&cFF0000) but i get;
“An exception of class NilObjectException was not handled. The application must shut down.”
Am I able to do things like change the color of the individual lines?
The issue was down to a stupid mistake on my part,
I am reading in data on the location of each of these lines, I have ran through the text file (counting the lines in the text file) and stored this in a variable
then I have run a For loop to setup each instance of the line and its location. due to tweaking the code and deleting bits i ended up with;
For a=1 to lines-1
which is why it didn’t reach 13 (lines was equal to 13 in this instance)
On a slightly side note… am I able to use the original item cloned? If i try to use l(0) i get the same issue as above stating it does not exist, but when i put;
msgbox(str(me.index)) in the mouse down event on the line & select the original line i get a message back stating “0”. I have also tried using Line1 but still I am unable to move or re-color the line through code?
Not a big issue if i can, I can just push it off the side & use an other cloned line
