Light MVO in GDL

vfrontiers · ‎2023-09-28

I am trying to use the MVO for lights inside my GDL SCRIPT...

I cannot find the actual GLOB VARIABLE that would reflect the MVO selection...

I see others that use the global variable GLOB_MVO_STAIR.... for example....

But don't se any for LIGHTS or ELEC...

I tried to REVERSE ENGINEER an existing light, but GS GDL scripts go 9 ways to Sunday to do the simplest things! So I could not follow...

Any assistance would be appreciated!!!

Thanks

I guess you mean these three bad boys?

This is how it's done:

lamp_symb = 0
rrr = LIBRARYGLOBAL("LibraryGlobals13", "iLSymbol", lamp_symb)

if rrr and lamp_symb then
  ! your code here
endif

Request the info from the "LibraryGlobals13" GDL (which constitutes the MVO panel).

The answer you can get is either 1, 2, or 3.

I think you'll figure it out from here on 😉
