Hi everybody,

What would be the best approach for receiving variables for applying transform? So far, I have the variable brought to the visual_logic.js file, yet transforming does not work from there, here is a code snippet:

PL.init = function(appInstance, scope) {

var vision_panel, motor_cover, roll_cover;

var test = scope[‘variable_1’];
setObjTransform(“width_control”, “scale”, test / 100, ”, ”, false);
setObjTransform(“right_profile”, “position”, 1.3 * (test / 100), ”, ”, false);

just like puzzles generate with the onclick event, but using my variable.

Hi,

Can you print the test variable to the console? Does it output a correct value at least?

Yes, the variable brings in the right value, the snag is with the transform function

Ok, can you attach here a narrowed down example so that we can take a look?

Yes, this is part of the visual_logic.js, PL.init function

PL.init = function(appInstance, scope) {

var vision_panel, motor_cover, roll_cover;

var test = scope[‘variable_1’];
setObjTransform(“width_control”, “scale”, test / 100, ”, ”, false);
setObjTransform(“right_profile”, “position”, 1.3 * (test / 100), ”, ”, false);

scope is my variable, and I verified and it works, the value is the correct one, I have breakpoints for both transforms, it reaches the first, but the next is never reached, if you know what i mean. It’s as if it somehow gets redirected.

may be it throws an exception?

maybe that is not where I should place that piece of code?

any ideas?

I guess you unintentionally deleted some code from visual_logic.js. The piece that starts from
var objCache = {};

Just checked, it is here, not deleted. Should this code be put maybe in another function, maybe that would work?

Difficult to say without seeing the entire listing. May be this is a syntax error or something.

visual_logic.js is automatically generated by Puzzles, and honestly, it is not supposed to be manually edited. I’d really recommend to use the ExternalInterface namespace in your app JavaScript to add methods that will address the code generated by Puzzles, and use the when called puzzle as described here:

Ok, but will this work with external variables as in my code?

Yes it will work. Just pass your variables as arguments to your jscallback function and use them in Puzzles for transform.
Foe example:
function runCode(app) {
app.ExternalInterface.myJSCallback(scale);
}
