why i cant use txtreplace or txtadd function

now i click hotsopt to read the scene name---scene_01, and change the prefix 'scene_' to 'li_', i want got a string li_01;

my code is following:

Code

txtreplace(li_num,get(linkedscene),'scene_','li_');
trace(li_num);
showlog();

the result should be the 'li_01';
but the true log result is 'li_num', doesn't get the number;

when i use the following:

Code

subtxt(sce_num, get(linkedscene),6,2);	//the sce_num is 01;
txtadd(li_num,'li_',sce_num);
trace(li_num);
showlog()

the li_num should be 'li_01';
but the true log result is 'li_num', still doesn't get the number;

why?

Hi,

the second parameter in txtreplace() need to be a variable - that means try it without the get():

Code

txtreplace(li_num, linkedscene,'scene_','li_');

for subtxt() it's the same, but in txtadd() the get() would be needed to add the content:

Code

subtxt(sce_num, linkedscene,6,2);
txtadd(li_num,'li_',get(sce_num));
trace(li_num);

Best regards,
Klaus
