How to update text of a button based off the value of a Custom ID from a root query

Ignition

I am attempting to update the value of a button based of the value of a custom ID from a form that I have in ignition, I have a query in the root of my ignition project that brings in the data that I need, but I am unsure how to do this correctly, any suggestions?

Is this Vision or Perspective?

Buttons don't have a value property. Do you mean something else such as the button's props.text?

correct prop.text

The red arrow from picture 1 is what I am using to determine what value from my root table query I will use find to get the correct data to fill into picture 2(yellow arrow) text area of the button

Assuming that your ID value is on the parent container then you just create a property binding to that custom property.

  1. Create a binding on your button props.text.
  2. Select Property binding.
  3. Point it to wherever the value is stored.
  4. The result.

This works for me

Good, but why don't you write directly to the button's props.text instead of to the view's props.custom.id and then the additional binding on props.text?

Don't forget to mark this thread as solved.
