Plugin Name: Object
Plugin Type: Action
Plugin Version: 2,0,0,0
Description:
This is a plugin for Autoplay Media Studio 8 only!
This plugin allows you to preform actions on the AMS objects in a more
pure-lua and object oriented form. The plugin contains all AMS functions for
object in OOP form. A few extra functions are added, these are
only listed in the helpfile, because the Action Dialog displays the functions
incorrectly. Only Object.Create, Object.GetPageHandle, Object.GetDialogHandle
are listed in the Action dialog. Also, Grid.GetCellState is added to the action
dialog, because this function wasn't documented in the AMS helpfile nor actionXML files.
Make sure to read the helpfile about the extra functions and their usage,
the usage for all native functions can be found in the AMS helpfile, for that
object.
As from version 1.1.0.0 this plugin now also contains the as we call it,
POTF (Properties on the fly) system. Which means, that you can just
type the object's name, followed by a .Properties and following that a . and a fieldname.
This will automatically update the properties of that object. eg:
Input1.Properties.Height = 50;
This will change the height of the object to 50, without having to call a function!
As of version 1.2.0.0, this is now supported on Page/Dialog ObjectHandles aswell,
check the helpfile for Object.GetPageHandle and Object.GetDialogHandle.
Latest added stuff:
- CAS - Chaining And Stacking
- SMOTF - String manipulation on the fly
Functions:
See the website for a full function list, link below. 275 functions and methods.
This version of the Object Action Plugin is only compatible with AMS 8, the version for
AMS7 can be found in the AMS7 Plugins section of my website or Here
