Hi all,
I am using Nware 1.6.3 and seem to have come across a bug RATC2.
When I controlGet a string with something in it I get:-
valueIs "config.1" my test string 0.000
I can set this string to a value using:-
controlSet "config.1" "my new text"
However when I try and set it to nothing :-
controlSet "config.1" ""
the response is:-
badArgumentCount
Does anybody know if there is a solution or workaround to this?

Interesting. Yes, this is a confirmed bug and we have no workaround other than using a 'space' in the quotes. This will be fixed in the next release.

That is good news thanks.
It would be good if at the same time it were possible to look at a mechanism/syntax to set a string control to a value such as "true""false""true" using RATC.
At the moment if I send the following:-
contrlSet "config.1" ""true""false""true""
I get the string set to the value:-
[D[[C"true""false""true""
..and the response:-
valueIs "config.1" [D[[C"true""false""true"" 0.000
.....which is obviously not correct.
