Connector
Description
Connector is a special kind of module that combines multiple modules into fully interactive, responsive content. It reports to ValueChanged type events and executes provided script if a received event meets specified conditions.
Properties
The list starts with the common properties, learn more about them by visiting the Modules description section. The other available properties are described below.
Property name | Description |
---|---|
Tasks | List of tasks (scripts) which will be executed when specified conditions occur |
Source | Required! Specifies sources of event (i. e. True/False Addon) |
Item | Event 'item' field value filter. Blank value means that all values are acceptable |
Value | Event 'value' field value filter. Blank value means that all values are acceptable |
Score | Event 'score' field value filter. Blank value means that all values are acceptable |
Script | Required! Script to be executed when incoming event meets conditions |
An example task can look like this:
Property name | Description |
---|---|
Source | TrueFalse1 |
Item | * |
Value | 1 |
Score | * |
Script | text1.setText("Answer for True/False was choosen") |
The above task will be executed for each selection (Value = 1) in the True/False addon with ID TrueFalse1 resulting in setting the Text module text "Answer for True/False was chosen".
Important: If nothing is provided for source, item, value or score, then the connector will try to match the script to execute to an empty text. This is different than using wildcard. Wildcard (*) matches to any characters and empty text matches exactly to empty text. For example a gap after deselecting may send an empty text as a value to indicate it's current state.
If there are many similar tasks, it's often useful to use wildcard ('*') character. It replaces zero and more characters and can be used in Item, Value and Score fields. An example task can look like this:
Property name | Description |
---|---|
Source | TrueFalse1 |
Item | 1-* |
Value | 1 |
Score | * |
Script | text1.setText("Answer for first question was choosen") |
The above task will be executed when any answer will be made for question 1.
