  • in reply to: Use buttons to select variable from a parameter #18656

    Hi,
    Thanks for your reply. This doesn’t really do what I need, I need separate buttons that are apart from each other that activate a different option.

    Is there a way to create a boolean button that looks the same as a UI_button?

    Thanks

    Yeah kind of, I know that I can use those circular radio buttons but what I really want is a button similar to the ui_button where it’s a solid rectangle so I can have 3 of them and each button will activate a different option.

    So I used the example, nothing that I do seems to be able to just pick out the renovation from the list… any ideas?

    Hi,

    Thanks for the reply. I don’t suppose you have any examples for this? The guidance doesn’t seem to explain it very well, to me anyway.

    Thanks

    Do you have a working example of this in use?
    That would be very useful!

    You can’t get the file path name and file path of the open project and then use it to make up the file path and name of a FULLPATH text doc from within the Parameter scripts. The parameter scripts are a crucial part as I need to then use the values from the text document lines to be able to do stuff with that data (parameter calculations etc).

    The method I want to use to be able to adjust the curve is have a centre point half way between the 2 points and then set the distance from the centre point to the arc – Is this possible to do in a fill and if so, how can I do it?

    I know that but I don’t actually know how to implement the adjustable curves into my fill with adjustable parameters – at present changing the ‘-180’ values which are the curves don’t do what I want them to do.

    Yeah, unfortunately this doesn’t work as I needed to use the file name to make up the string for the FULLPATH to actually find the text file

    Basically, I wanted to get the name of the model and add it to a string to then complete a file path to search for a text document

    Hello,

    I managed to work around the problem above but I’ve come across the need for this functionality again. Is there any reason as to why we cannot access the requests from the parameter scripts? It would be so incredible useful to be able to – as well as project info. It seems like an unnecessary limitation.

    Thanks

    The only problem is that it relies on having a drawing in the project, right?

    Our scale bar is just a 2D object and not a drawing title object.

    I’d like to be able to get the full project name, eg. 00001-Project1-AC23

    but only use the first 5 characters (00001) to compare against 5 numbers that I call from a text file.

    So I would be able to do something like this:
    if (project_number = text_file_number) then
    match = 1
    else
    match = 0
    endif

    Thanks

    What I want to achieve involves cutting up the name of the project to get the first 5 numbers of the project name. I have no use for it to be outputted in 2D / 3D. It’s not necessarily needing to store it as a parameter but I do need to be able to use the string (like a parameter). I don’t know if there is a way of doing so?
