Turorial 4 Scroll Wheel: problem with textbuffer & TEXT_SIZE (V4.20.0)

[FMuel.3]

Hi everyone

I am new to toughgfx and need a scroll wheel for our new project. So I started with the tutorial 4. I think I followed every step, but when I copy the code, I get an error. The problem seems to be the textBuffer and TEXT_SIZE (Unicode::itoa(no, textBuffer, TEXT_SIZE, 10);). I get the message that they are not defined.

As far as I know the tutorial should have all the steps and all the code needed.

Any Idea what I'm missing?

Thank you!

Hello FMuel.3,

It won't work because you didn't checked the checkbox "use wildcard buffer" on your text Area. Like this :

 

It's not explicitly said in the tutorial 4. Thanks for reporting this. We will do the modification for the next version of the documentation because it might be confusing indeed.

Thank you very much!

It also helped me with another problem that I had. I just missed to select "Use wildcard buffer". Now it works, thank you.
