Problem clearing textbox

[roty]

Hello , I just start with AI and basically it works.

However, I stuck at a simple problem. I can not clear a certain textbox.
After the textbox shows the right string, I would like to clear the textbox
during disconnect the IP connection. I do:

Could it be that

does not clear the hole variable?

Can anybody help please?

Thanks a lot

Are all the other textboxes being set correctly in your procedure?
Have you tried just using an empty text block instead of a variable ?

I would like to clear the textbox
during disconnect the IP connection.

Do you have an event block somewhere where new data could sneak in before the disconnect is complete?

Thank you all for tyring to help.

I think you got it! Only for a test I implemented a button which just clears the box. And it seems
to works. There must be a buffer which delivers data to the box after disconnect.
How can I flush this buffer or how can I use at least a time delay before clearing the data box?

Thank you.

@roty

how can I use at least a time delay before clearing the data box?

a single shot Clock Timer?

Can you please give me a hint how I can implement such a timer ?

@roty

how I can implement such a timer

Pull in another Clock component from the Sensors Drawer.
Call the new one clkDisconnected, with enabled=false.
In the Blocks Editor, pull in a Timer event for the new Clock.
In that Timer event, call your Show_Disconnect procedure and set clkDisconnected.enabled=false.
In the place where you previously called that procedure, set clkDisconnected.enabled=true.
