WoWInterface - component Access/Tip List

I'm rather new to the xml so i'm creating a list of ways to access components to help me and others.

CheckBoxes

Code:

--Returns (1 | nul) (checked | unchecked)

local TextThenData = (getglobal("Test5Form".."CheckButton1")):GetChecked();

MultilinedEditBox

Code:

--This Get's the Text from a Edit box

local editboxtext = (getglobal("Test5Form".."MultilineEditBox1".."Edit")):GetText();

ScrollingMessageFrame

Code:

--This addes Text to the frame

getglobal("Test3Form".."ScrollingMessageFrame1"):AddMessage("Test");

Lables

If the name of the Label is $parentLabel, and your form name is TestForm you would access it by:

Code:

local fs = getglobal("TestForm".."Label".."Label")

where the names are separated to clarify the splits.

If you just called your Label TitleText, then the code is:

Code:

local fs = getglobal("TitleText".."Label");

I'll add more as i learn/find out Please post any others if feel they are helpful
