How do I use an Object Variable?
To use object variables, you need to create a mini script containing a procedure as shown in the example(if you want to, for example, hide the object):
Sub hideobject
objvar = eval (textvar)
objvar.visible = False
End Sub
where objvar = name of the object variable
textvar = name of a text variable, storing a value (name of the object).
The script will assign the value of the textvar -> objvar using the eval () function.
Var 1: The user selects the object (e.g. by clicking it) Then you say:
mouseclick -> assign (object.name->textvar)) and run the script above.
Var 2: If you want to affect several (numbered) objects (object1, object2 etc.):
Specify the name of the object (e.g. “object” + numbervar -> textvar) and run the script above. Increase the Numbervar and repeat it for the next object (e.g. inside a loop in Mediator).
