Hints on following would be appreciated:
Manipulate[
expression[time, species],
{{time, stopIntegration, "Time Point"}, startIntegration,
stopIntegration, Appearance -> "Labeled"},
{{species, "APINENE", "Species"}, FieldSize -> 8}
]
As intended, an InputField is generated by {{species, "APINENE",
"Species"}, FieldSize -> 8}.
The difficulty is I would like to constrain the type to String, as can be
done using InputField["xxx",String]. But I cannot quite figure out the
syntax to get String into the Manipulate formulation.
Thanks in advance!
