Nomads / List Box or Grid ...
October 05, 2026, 04:23:17 PM
Hi All,

I tried searching for a post on this but could not find it. We have some users who get the ... after text (and not the full text) when there is plenty of room to fit the text. I did some reading and understand that it might have something to do with resolution.
I tried lowering resolution but that did not help.
It is not every user's machine, just about 10 of them.

does anyone know of a quick fix or point me in the direction.

thanks

Jerry

Language / Redirecting Standard Error
October 02, 2026, 12:05:14 PM
Hi All,

I have someone who created a python script that I am invoking from inside of pxplus.
Everything is working fine.
However
I'm trying to do some error handling when/if there is a problem.
I have a command variable that will resolve to this long string
"c:\python\python.exe" "c:\script\send_email.py" "c:\args\args_file.json" 2> "c:\errors\error_file.err"

if i do
invoke hide wait CMD$

nothing redirects to error_file.err
i'm forcing errors in the script to test ....it just shows on the screen. it won't redirect to my error file
i 'm in a windows environment...
any thoughts?

Nomads / Re: Preserve Trailing Space on Grid Value

Thank you for explaining it to me Devon,

The READ DATA FROM g'RowData$ TO IOL=g'LoadIOList$ has become kind of a coding standard with us.
So I will just continue with my workaround which is to store the data in base64 when I want to be 100% Certain about preserving the spaces.

Nomads / Preserve Trailing Space on Grid Value
September 28, 2026, 01:33:07 PM
Hello List,

I hope this is an easy one.

I have always worked around this in the past but I really want to know if there is a way to do this.
If I set a grid value = "WIDGET   "
When i read it back in using the iolist I seem to lose the trailing spaces.
Is there a way to preserve this? I have strip trailing spaces unchecked on Grid.

thanks

Language / Using GIT
September 22, 2026, 03:14:18 PM
Hello All,

My company wants us to start using GIT for Development.  From what I understand I need to save/convert my pxplus programs to a text files in order to use GIT.  I've read about a few way to do this.
I'm wondering if there is a best practice or a quick way to do it.
Also if anyone is doing this do you include Line Numbers or No Line Numbers?

Thanks

Jerry

Hello EVa,

From what I read I believe you are right. I'm trying to configure the port to use EZWebServer. I'm running the pxplus  ide and the pxplus web ide. When I click on anything (e.g. Web Deployment / Configure PxPlus Web Server) it brings me to Documentation Page. i.e. it doesnt open up anything. It does this in both programs.
I am running PxPlus 2020 .....According to the documentation on the page it says:

When you install PxPlus 2016 or later, a new shortcut is created for the PxPlus Web IDE. The PxPlus Web IDE provides application developers with Web browser accessibility to some of the standard PxPlus development and setup tools that are also available on the PxPlus IDE Main Launcher (Windows).

any thoughts?

Web Services / API Question
August 17, 2026, 03:17:05 PM
Hello All,

I have a customer who is using a web app for their Warehouse Management System. They are trying to get a few fields (from our PxPlus database).  I know there are a few ways to do this. I was wondering if using EzWeb Server with API calls returning JSON would be a good (modern) way to handle it.
Does anyone have any thoughts on subject? I might have a follow up question on EzWeb Server.

Thanks

Jerry

Hi Loren,
I'm pretty sure it is off because we have had problems in the past when you have this situation

Call Prog1
    Call Prog2
       Call Prog3
           Call Prog4

then Prog4 gets an error, the error goes back to Prog1 and you have no idea what was going on in Prog1 because all the variables are no longer in memory.
if i had my way it would be that pxplus does not error out but i'm going to have to set NE parameter before calling this program then turn it back on

thank you
