The code:
input("Type your input here:)
displays as:
Type your input here:
I want to automatically populate the input window with text that can be cleared by pressing backspace so the display looks like:
Type your input here: DEFAULT
and after pressing backspace 3 times the user would see:
Type your input here: DEFA
Other posts have indicated that this isn't something you can do in, say, bash, but is there a way to do this in Python?
Simple answer: No. It's just not something you can do in a console app. What's commonly done is to display the default you'll get if you press return:
Type your input here [DEFAULT]:

I want to pass my input text boxes value to the build stage. I'm using the windows execute command prompt as the build setup. I have an Active choice parameter containing options as values and a Active Choices Reactive Reference Parameter which includes a groovy script to be executed when the option is selected from the Active choice Parameter.
In Active Choices Reactive Reference Parameter the groovy script contains an switch statement which will render multiple input text boxes as the output when an option is selected. I want to know how to get the values of each input text box separately maybe as an parameter to echo them out.
Such as in the build stage cmd,
echo %{Input1 text box value}% %{Input 2 text box value}%
Help me out! I have attached an image of the above case for your reference. Thank you :)
Here is the image of the script, click on this to view the image
Following the guidelines of the documentation for generating the HTML, you can run something like this in the groovy script:
return """
<input name=\"value\" value=\"${ReactiveRefParam}\" class=\"setting-input\" type=\"text\">
<input name=\"value\" value=\"${ReactiveRefParam1}\" class=\"setting-input\" type=\"text\">
"""
Once the name attribute of the inputs is the same - value,
the Reactive Reference Parameter will hold the values of all inputs in the following format: first_input_value, second_input_value ....
You can then just use the parameter value to extract each input value by splitting it by , or any other way.
here is an example for the Active Choice Parameter config.
The second one is exactly the same with different values
here is an example for the Reactive Reference Parameter config
and here is the example for the Build With Parameters outcome page
I have an EasyGui multenterbox and I was wondering if there was a way to set a default value for the inputs in the GUI?
Thanks
Probably you need default_text argument
Syntax : enterbox(message, title, default_text)
Argument : It takes 3 arguments, first string i.e message/information to be displayed, second string i.e title of the window and third is string which is default text
Return : It returns the entered text and None if cancel is pressed
EasyGui default text
When entering a command in IPython console using multi-line input, like creating an instance of an object with several parameters, I might enter the parameters on separate lines like:
In [1]: post = Post("post title",
...: "Author name",
...: "This is the content and it is the last parameter");
However, while entering the post content I realize that I mistyped something in the post title on line 1 of my multi-line input. Is there a way to go back and correct a previous line?
Alternatively, is there a way to simply abandon the input altogether and stop entering the command without python attempting to interpret my partially entered command?
I have a validator which Ive attached to a wx.TextCtrl inside a wx.Dialog:
myinput = wx.TextCtrl(self, validator=MyValidator())
All that validator does is it binds a wx.EVT_CHAR event and checks whether the input is a number and whether the number of characters entered is less than 5.
The problem is when I select the text with my mouse i.e. turn it to blue I cant replace the text if the number of characters is already at its maximum.
How can I detect whether the user has selected the text of that specific text box and has pressed a key?
Take a look at how the IntValidator inside the file wx\lib\intctrl.py is created.
Now use the intctrl instead of creating your own and limit the characters entered to 4 by using the method SetMaxLength(4)
i want to simulate the pressing of the enter key using py-appscript
i already found this, but it seems to only output the newline
Translate Applescrip [key code 125 using command down] to appscript
right now i want to press the enter key after the value has been set.
Example, after entering the IP hit enter key.
or send a keycode to the field itself.
app('System Events').key_code(76). (Or key_code(36) or keystroke('\r') if you meant ↩ instead of ⌤.)
keystroke and key_code don't ignore keys actually held down by the user, so you might need to add a delay if you're using a shortcut with modifier keys used to run the script.
