pushing string to a variable

[dcpri]

Hello. I want to send a string value from an .rs file to the ui. I assume I have to use push it but don't know where to go with it. Something like sending "Hello World" from my about.rs to the variable "message" in the ui.about.60:

about.rs

sixtyfps::include_modules!();
pub fn about() {
	let ui = AppWindow::new();
	     let message = message.clone();
	     move |text| About::Text.push(message { "Hello World" } );
	ui.run();
}

ui.about.60

export About := Rectangle {
     Text { text: message; }
}

This is in preparation to sending data retrieved from an SQlite database in my rs file to a form on a ui page.

You need to expose the message as a property:

export About := Rectangle {
     property <string> message;  // <-- added this
     Text { text: message; }
}

Then you can just call the generated setter:

sixtyfps::include_modules!();
pub fn about() {
	let ui = AppWindow::new();
        ui.set_message("Hello World".into());
	ui.run();
}

I hope this helps.
