Hello,
I'm currently trying to pass the (changed) value of a variable (variableName) when the user clicks a hotspot. The hotspot url contains the following piece of code:
Code: Select all
javascript:parent.player.SetVar(‘variableName’,Math.floor((Math.random() * 100000) + 1))
Somehow this code does not do anything. Anyone has a clue?
Best regards,
Sebastiaan Vondenhoff

HI Sebastiaan,
What are you trying to do?
I take it your referring to the variable in the skin, why not use a set variable action?
Regards,
Hopki

Hi Hopki,
I'm trying to pass a signal that one or more variables have changed within the 360-tour, which is embedded as a web object in Articulate Storyline (E-learning authoring tool). In Articulate Storyline I can create a setup so that it "listens" via Javascript.
Regards,
Sebastiaan

Sebastiaan, in your code are those truly apostrophes around 'variableName' ? Because what you have shown above are invalid characters for a Left-Single Quote and a Right-Single Quote. Notice they are slanted a bit.
True apostrophes should look straight up-and-down like these:
parent.player.SetVar('variableName',Math.floor((Math.random() * 100000) + 1))
Just guessing,
Don

If it still does not work then maybe you should not use variables in Pano2VR but rather in external js code. You could handle the random number thing in a separate function. I have noticed it's much easier that way
