Combining string and server response object data

[Steve Mohican]

I have a text which is a combination of string and server response object data like this:

"New Version (v" + response.CurrentVersion") is available. Click to Download"

How can I print this text inside a Panel with Paint Routine? Below one doesn't work.

const var PrintedText = "New Version (v" + response.CurrentVersion") is available. Click to Download";


Panel1.setPaintRoutine(function(g, h)
	      { 
	      	g.setColour(0xFFFFFFFF); 	
	      	g.setFont("Arial", 13);	   
	      	g.drawAlignedText(PrintedText, [0, 10, 207, 20], "centred");   
	      });

Your paint routine is fine. Your text string is not valid (try using Console.print() to test it)

@d-healey it says undefined. How can I convert this object data to a string?

@Steve-Mohican

Your string is not formed correctly, you are missing a +

@d-healey When I remove the +, it still doesn't work.

If you want to teach me, you just can do it with writing the solution, no need to make me struggle man :)

Besides if I would know how to combine with these different data types, I wouldn't ask ;)

I dont think you read what Dave said -- he didnt say remove a +, he said you were missing one.

As he said - use Console.print to debug your code... then you wouldnt need to ask at all...

Best way to learn ;)

const var PrintedText = "New Version (v" + response.CurrentVersion + ") is available. Click to Download";
