Popup- value for true/false

[Kurtiswilk]

Hey All,

 

I seem to be missing something, Probably over thinking it.

 

I have a popup

0- left

1- right

2- top

3- bottom

4- none

 

I'm looking for a way to have an "IF" statement with the popup being the test.

 

If the "popup"  is "none"  its true, any other value would return a false.

Ultimate goal is to use this to remove an item when not required. 

 

I'm sure its not explained very well.

 

Thanks

Kurtis

I don't think there is a way to use the default Popup node to handle a dynamic number of items. If you want that you will have to create your own popup node and then probably pass it a list of display values and output values for each display.

 

It is often better to explain what you are trying to accomplish rather then your implementation idea. Once we know what the goal and input conditions are we can better offer different implementation ideas.

I'll use a color picker as an example.

 

I want to have a popup be able to chose a line color, and then say if red is selected turn off part or hide a section of the marionette.

Just missing the step in between.

 

I've attached the bit used to pick the color, works like a charm via popup under object attributes

So I did indeed figure out how to accomplish the if statement. The new problem, How to sett a fill of a rectangle to None .

 

 

I was drastically over thinking the if problem. 

Using a "if in string" with the main string being the popup and the sub string and integer matching the selection you want

in the attached example, if you select the color grey it'll be overridden with yellow otherwise will show the selected

That looks like exactly what i need. But I can't seem to figure out how to plug that into marionette?

Hi
It should be possible, to use the "Attributes"-Node to set fill pattern to 0. Connect it after your object and set it to Empty  Fill. After That attach your colors. The Problem could be that the "Attributes" node replace also the line weight and line style. If that is a problem you can use the "function"-Node. And just paste vs.SetFPat(x, 0) in the input field.
