Hello, how do I write the code to reference the size of an item in the outobject?
I tried: current.outObjects[1].subnodes[1].size.x
But it doesn't work. It says label does not exit.
I can't use first because I'll then need to create a loop to look at all the items in the outobject,
Thanks,
subnodes[] is an array of treenodes. size is a property of an Object. You need to cast it to an Object:
current.outObjects[1].subnodes[1].as(Object).size.x;
That doesn't work as is. I've attached the model. I want to send a maximum of 6 square meters of items in Queue2. The code is in the Send to Port of Queue1.max-area-available.fsm
By the way, I made it work by doing the area calculation within Queue2 and placing the info on a label on Queue2. But since I will need to select between hundreds of possible send to locations I'd much rather have the code in the sending object (queue1).
You are getting the following exception:
time: 2.000000 exception: FlexScript exception: Label property length retrieved on /Queue2. Label does not exist. at MODEL:/Queue1>variables/sendtoport
You are trying to get Queue2's length on line 6:
if (current.outObjects[1].length==0) return 1;
Since an Object doesn't have a property called length, it is trying to get a label called length, which Queue2 doesn't have.
The non-existent label's value is always 0, so this always returns 1.
You should be trying to get the length of its subnodes property:
if (current.outObjects[1].subnodes.length==0) return 1;
It isn't even hitting your code in lines 9 -19.
You could have found that out by putting in a breakpoint and debugging this function.
Yes you're right. I have never used breakpoints and I'm not familiar with it. I will look into this. Thanks a lot and sorry for my silly question.
