Pop up post question

[westerfieldc]

Afternoon all, I have a question about using questions in the post.  I have the following but what I would like to do is have the question populated with a default value.  I have tried a couple of things to no avail.  What I would like to happen is if the programmer just presses enter when the question comes up the value would default to 30.

 

sprogramend :  ""

 

# Question format statements
# --------------------------------------------------------------------------
fq 1 stock_typ "Predator Stock [0=Box,1=Cylindrical]"
fq 2 cyl_typ "Cylindrical Stock Axis [1=X,2=Y,3=Z]"
fq 3 sprogramend "Program end [30=M30,99=M99]"

 

 q3
      n$, "M", no_spc$, sprogramend,  e$
 

 

Thanks

When you define your variable, you can set it to a value

 

 

index_set   : 1        #Default setting for force index is 1(Use in Indexer Mode)

fq 1 index_set "Full Rotary or Indexer (0=Full Rotary, 1=Indexer)"

 

In your case

 

sprogrammed : 30

 

 

I might change that variable name though to something eof_value, eof_code

 

s is generally a string variable
