How to I set the label for each new variable in feature script

daniel_cravens

Two related questions.

1. I would like to change the label for each new joint from #?:? how do I do that?
2. I would like to change the button title from "new variable" to "new joint", how would I do that?

Full code below.

annotation { "Feature Type Name" : "uiDoveTailSketch", "Editing Logic Function" : "onFeatureChange" }

export const CreateDoveTail = defineFeature(function(context is Context, id is Id, definition is map)

    precondition

    {

        annotation { "Name" : "edge for split", "Filter" : EntityType.EDGE, "MaxNumberOfPicks" : 1 }

        definition.edge is Query;     

        

        annotation { "Name" : "Base" }

        isLength(definition.tBase, LENGTH_BOUNDS);       

       

        annotation { "Name" : "Height"}

        isLength(definition.tHeight, LENGTH_BOUNDS);   

        annotation { "Name" : "Flair Angle"}

        isAngle(definition.tAngle, ANGLE_360_BOUNDS);

        

                   

        annotation { "Name" : "Joints", "Item name" : "Variable", "Item label template" : "###name : #value" }

        

        definition.joints is array;

        

        for (var variable in definition.joints)

        {

            

            annotation { "Name" : "Offset"}

            isAnything(variable.vOffset);

                       

            annotation { "Name" : "Depth" }

            isAnything(variable.vDepth);  

        }

        

        

         

        

        annotation { "Name" : "Flip" }

        definition.flipped is boolean;

        

        

       

   

    }

    {

  

        opDoveTailSketch(context, id, definition);

            

            

        

    });    

export function onFeatureChange(context is Context, id is Id, oldDefinition is map, definition is map,

    isCreating is boolean, specifiedParameters is map, hiddenBodies is Query) returns map

{

    println("OnFeatureChange");

    

    if(size(definition.joints) == 0)

    {

        definition.tHeight = .01 * meter;

        definition.tAngle = 65 * degree;

    }

    else

    {

        if (size(oldDefinition.joints) < size(definition.joints) && size(definition.joints) > 1)

        {

            println("Adding joint");

            definition.joints[size(definition.joints)-1] = definition.joints[size(definition.joints)-2];

        }

    }

    

    

    return definition;

}

In the annotation for the array parameter type:

-  "Item name"  is what you will see in the "Add X" button in the UI. So change this from Variable to Joint.
-  "Item label template" is how each item is named. Doing "#parametername" will set the value to the value of that parameter. So if you want it set to the offset, you would do "#vOffset"

Fantastic. Thank you.
