view

[Way2crazy]

what is the script to make the screen go to a specific cordiniate?
and zoom?

[Rideg]

Scene.camera.pan = [0.0, 0.0]
Scene.camera.zoom = 5

You should use the search before you post a new topic...

[Matten]

The deafaults are [0,0] for pan and 150 for zoom.
How to get the co-ordinates:
1- Go to the view you want
2- Add a box
3- Go to text in the scriptmenu
4- Type: "" + scene.camera.pan + "\n" + scene.camera.zoom
5- Now you have the co-ordinates on the box!

If you want the co-ordinates on the box change when you change the view, you have to put this code between {}

[Rideg]

or you can make a object in the middle of the thing you want to pan, and then copy the object into notepad to get the cords of the object.

[Matten]

But it's easier to get it right in Algodoo

[Chronos]

Actually, it's not.

[Matten]

Why?

[Chronos]

Because if you forget the code, you have to load up your browser, find this topic, and copy/paste it in. Even if you remember the code, it's still a hassle. With the other way, you select the object, ctrl+c, open Notepad, ctrl+v, look for the position, and you're done. You don't even need a connection.

[Rideg]

there should be a wa to access all the numbers for an object. yes I know the new method but I don't like using it, besides it doesn't save it when you save and load...

[Matten]

Then it should be better that in the script menu you can see all the properties of an object, and that they can be changed. With this way you can easly make teleporters and size changers.

I just said that

[Matten]

No, you said that they have to be accessable. I said how that should be possible.

[Rideg]

Well I thought that that was kinda obvious. There's not any other suitable place to put them.

[Matten]

Maybe in the "Object properties" menu or something.

By the way it should be cool if you have access to all properties of an object, I hope this will come quik.

[Rideg]

hope so but changing them would be too unrealistic. But I hope that it's going to be possible without using a lagging "app.step; app.undo"

[Rideg]

BTW I made something that you can use to get a [x, y] - velocity. Reply if you want it.

[Matten]

Well, I reply, so how is it's done

BTW: I know how to use materialVelocity

[Rideg]

nothing about that don't even know what it means. Basically it calculate the velocity using positions and store them in Scene.my.vel

[Matten]

Oh, I tought you meant how to give an object velocity. That can be done with materialVelocity.

[Rideg]

yeah I noticed that. Do you want the Velocity - Probe
