Prompt Format Mode

Format Mode: Prompt: Opens a javascript box for you to put your text in


OK this is being entered in the Prompt Format Mode and I don't see a javascript box or anything happening.

I tried too and saw no difference.

What am I doing wrong?

Same here. Looks exactly the same to me. But I got the impression from various comments over the past few months that there definitely is a difference. Help!

Just testing something. Still don't see any difference when selecting Prompt format mode. But decided to try the different 'screensize' to see if it changes only the width of the input text box or if it changes the width of the message when I post this. So this is just gibberish to get enough text in the box to make that determination. Now is the time for all good....

--edited-- ok i see how that looks. now to put it back where it was and compare.

To make a list like this set format for prompt, then click on the far right icon with the 3 dots and 3 lines. In the first box that comes up put in a 1 click ok in the next box type in the first name or item on the list you want to make, do the same in the next box and so on. Be sure to click ok on each box. In the last box just click ok and that will end your list.



Of course you can use basic to do the same thing.

1.
2.
3.
4.

But prompt does this for you.

O.K. This could be useful.

Helps if I want to do something a little different.
