Listing Parameters in a Schedule

Nando Mogollon — Wed, 24 May 2023 09:48:32 GMT

Hi there,

I need to list the variable N of a certain Object in a Schedule. (bread-n-butter)

the variable N is actually a counter in a loop ( for i=1 to ..... N=N+1...)

By the end of the loop N stores the value for the number of loops.

Here is the problem:
If I create the Variable N in the Parameter List (main window of GDL) it will remain always 0 and will never show the real value of N, therefore useless for my Schedule.

I've tried moving the value to another parameter ( counter=N), doesn't work.
I can see the value by means of ( text2 0,0,N) but I really need to schedule several objects and add up the values.

What do I need for N to show the real value in the parameter list? therefore be able to schedule it?

thanks in advance!

"parameters n=n" in the end of parameter script does not work?

Where the calculations are done in the object?

Yep, I tried that, doesn't work. by the way I also thought that was the solution.

I'm doing the calculation (the counting) in the 2D Script

The weird thing: it works with GLOBAL variables, like SYMB_POS_X and so on. but not with LOCAL variables.

thanks for the reply Piotr
