Label property
Special value available in formulas:
Item
The form group this property is part of, enabling multiple checked items in the app designer to share the same formula and be updated all at once.
Consider the fields Field1 and Field2, which should
only be considered to be valid if their values are
greater than 4. Without using the Item
value, the Valid
property of Field1 would need to use the formula Field1 > 4Field1 > 4 and the Valid
property of Field2 would need to use the formula Field2 > 4Field2 > 4.
Using Item
, both formulas can read Item > 4Item > 4. This is useful
if you have many fields and you want to be able to update their
formulas all at once. To do so, click their check boxes in Calcapp
Creator and make sure that a checked field is selected. Then, when you
update a formula for one checked field, you update all the other
checked fields too, which is a great timesaver.
Use Item
in exactly the same way you'd use the regular
name. FormGroup1.VisibleFormGroup1,Visible and
Item.VisibleItem,Visible
are equivalent, for instance.
The label. If this property is not set, it returns the label set for this form group in Calcapp Creator.
Example
Sets the form group label to "Calculated results" if Field1 is valid (by consulting its Valid property). If Field1 is not valid, the form group label is set to "Calculated results ⚠️" (with a warning triangle).
