[SOLVED] Widgets Get/Set value vs text

What is the difference in essence between:
Code: Select all
widgets["AnyProp"].text = xyz ;
widgets["AnyProp"].setValue(xyz);
Code: Select all
var xyz = widgets["AnyProp"].text;
var xyz = widgets["AnyProp"].getValue();
greatly appreciated,

This is Qt API for QLineEdit and string based, e.g. widgets["AnyProp"].text = "1/6".
This is QCAD API for RMathLineEdit and number based: widgets["AnyProp"].setValue(1/6);
The same is true for retrieving the value. text will give you the string (e.g. "1/6"), while getValue() will give you the value (0.166666666..).

Got it.
Besides that, Javascript will treat strings that represent real numbers as numbers except with additions.
And RMathLineEdit works with fixed precision 6.
