outputOnly

Integer. When not zero, the UIfield becomes an "output only" widget meant for displaying numeric results. The user cannot type into the widget.

updateMode

Integer. Specifies the user action that will apply the current string value in the widget to the value subobject. Valid values for updateMode (which can be OR'ed to produce combinations of actions) are:

• 0 -- The widget value is not updated under any circumstances.

• 1 (the default) -- The widget value is applied when the user presses Enter (or Ctrl-Enter, in the case of a multiline text widget).

• 2 -- The widget value is applied when the widget loses keyboard focus.

• 4 -- The widget value is applied when the the widget loses pointer focus.

format =1

Enumerator. Selects display format.

• 0 -- mixed

• 1 -- (the default) fixed

• 2 -- scientific

&nullString

String. Sets the "nullString" to the string you wish to display when the value is unset or undefined.

&resizeMode

Boolean. Allows the text widget to re-size to fit the length of the value.
