proportional input

Hi there,

The PRINT command has this nice parameter with which you can swith between fixed and proportional printing. Is there a way to get the same result with the INPUT command?
Proportional printing?

regards,
Andrik

Yes, the same syntax that print.

It has been requested - so it's possible it may be added at some point in the future...

LOL, it was requested by me long time ago and implemented by Gernot. Just use the same syntax as print for proportional input. Isn't it on the help file?

Ah yes - it works well :)

Shows how often I use INPUT$ :)

When I use the following command:
INPUT name$, 180,100,TRUE

I get the following error when compiling:
error : wrong number of aguments : "INPUT" called with 4 args. Required: 3 to 3

So there doesn't seem to be a proportional parameter for input?????

I use the free version of GLbasic, downloaded it a week ago, so I'm sure it's a current version.

any thoughts?

Check your version number again, there is a 4th parameter, i just tested it.
