Get value from NumericUpDown

[ger21]

What is the error you are seeing?

I think you hit the main ones. That would be great.

So I assume there's no way to read in the value from a NumericUpDown yet?

give me a moment.... multitasking

Use one of these below (numericUpDown1.Value is actually a Decimal value)

Code: Select all

      double dblnumericUpDown1 = Convert.ToDouble(numericUpDown1.Value);
      string strnumericUpDown1 = Convert.ToString(numericUpDown1.Value);

You should save it in the ValueChanged event, I think.

Not necessary, if you are using another event like within a button event..... Depends what your form does.... If you want the value to have instant effect on change then yes

Thank you guys. I'll try both methods. I could have sworn I tried the "Convert.ToDouble(...)" but it didn't work. Maybe I typed it wrong.

In any case, I'll be back at the machine on Monday. I'll let you know, thanks for all the help!

Things should work, because the UCCNC is using the .NET compiler called (CodeDom), so there is no way that C# functions like Convert.ToDouble is not working, because that would mean that the .NET framework is broken on the computer, but that is also not possible, because then the UCCNC itself would also not work, because it is a .NET application and run by the .Net framework.

[Jeffsg605]

That was my understanding, too. But then how come something like "double x = (double)NumericUpDown1.Value" doesn't work.

[cncdrive]

It should work. What is the error message you get?
