Text object pv's

Um yeah something seems to be wrong with 99.5 text object pv's.

Anybody care to confirm?

What exactly is wrong?

Add a pv to a text object, var here

add mouse/ keyboard

then event as simple as this:

MouseKeyboard: 15 On Left mouse button Clicked

TextSet text to Text 0 .Value("Var")

TextAdd 1 to 'var'

The text just disappears as soon as you click.

EDIT: Okay, I see what the issue is. You have Text.Value("Var") with double quotes, not Text.Value('Var') with single quotes.

My original post, anyways:

Try:

str(Text.Value('var'))

or:

"" & Text.Value('var')

But curiously enough, even without doing that, I am seeing the text display okay. I'm using 0.99.5 here.

Copying/pasting my event as text:

MouseKeyboard: 14 On Left mouse button Clicked

TextSet text to Text 0 .Value('var')

TextAdd 1 to 'var'

Yes singles work fine, and I see when you click on the add pv command it doesn't have the quotes included.
