Adding to a parameter in parameter script

Anonymous · ‎2015-02-09

If an integer parameter is increased by 1 in the parameter script, e.g.

parameters test = test + 1

the script may run multiple times during one user operation. A parameter that is assigned 1 to start with could then be 4 after one single user operation. Is there a workaround for this?

Thanks Barry,

Didnt see that little gem in the gdl manual. Much appreciated.

Too bad it doesn't work for the master script aswell.

Hello Mark,

Did you try it in the master script - I think it
works there too.

You are right, my first attempt had a type I didn't see. All works well! thanks.

n = APPLICATION_QUERY ("PARAMETER_SCRIPT", "FIRSTOCCASION_IN_PROGRESS", isFirstRun)
