Hi everyone,
Building applications is still a bit new for me, so this question may seem stupid for experts in SAS/AF.
I have added a textpad-component in my frame. Then, in my scl-program I would like to have some control of the text that appears in the textpad, forexample:
rc=insertc(mytextpad.text,'This is the firstline',-1);
rc=insertc(mytextpad.text,'This is the second line',-1);
Why does the textpad not show these two lines? Do I need to call some function to get the textpad updated with the new entries?
I made some experience with using a text-entry component instead. here the text is autmatically updated, but this component can only contain one line.

Since you only change the SCL List contents the widget is not aware of any changes.
You can you the _refresh, or _needRefresh method, so that the widget redraws it s content.
Something like:
rc = insertc(textPad.text, tempString, -1);
textPad._needRefresh();
