Description
A UITextBox control is used to display, or accept as input, a single line of text. A UITextBox object is used to display text on a form or to get user input while a program is running. UITextBox doesn’t have a ‘title’ so you will need to add a UILabel to display a title. You may want to use the UITextInput instead because it is similar but includes the ‘title’ and the ‘titleLocation’ features.

Project Example:
In your kBridge Examples Projects folder open the project called ‘MyTable’.
Reference Location:
“world.mytable.tableui.tableui0.inputscontainer.inputscontainer0.contentfieldset.contentfieldset0.contentpanel.contentpanel0.inputcontainertest.inputcontainertest0.textbox.textbox0”
Link: https://knowledgebridge.engineer/projects
Open the MyTable project.
Press the UI start icon to start the User Interface.
A rule was created in the root (MyTable) called ‘TextBoxTest’ which is a string type with a default of "Text Box Test".
When new text ("Text Box Display and enter text".) is entered in the UITextInput it sets the ‘TextBoxTest to the new value.
In the example image below, ("Text Box Display and enter text") was entered.
You can tell that the rule is getting its value from the UI by the ‘world.mytable’ in the Owner column. Also the text in in bold.
