About labels in chooser.gadget (solved)

Hi,

When I add an entry to chooser.gadget's list of labels and the text of a label contains an underscore, this label will appear in the chooser's list with the character following the (first) underscore to be underscored and the actual underscore itself to be suppressed. This happens when I have a list of filenames as labels of a chooser.

A label of "Copy_of_ThisFile" is presented as "Copy*f_ThisFile", where '*' is an underscored 'o'.

How can I overcome this 'feature'?

Try setting GA_Underscore for the chooser to '|' or some other character that will never appear.

That feature seems kind of pointless anyway, since it's not possible to select one of the choices by typing the underscored character, even when one is present.

Thanks, that did the trick! Set GA_Underscore to '/' and proverbially 'Bob became my uncle'.
