All of the above is still true, but now I turned the property display dialog into a regular class, so you can also create your own temporary displays for development purposes. For example, to show a list of live-updated properties (separate from the global one described before), this is all you need:
var display = screen.display.new(500, -100); display.setcolor(1, 0, 1); display.add("/position/latitude-deg", "/position/longitude-deg"); Or, just screen.display.new(-300, -1).add("/sim/time/gmt-string"); to show the time in the upper right corner. Or what about showing everything under "/position" in red? var pos = props.globals.getNode("/position"); screen.display.new(-300, -50).setcolor(1, 0, 0).add(pos.getChildren()); The displays are now by default updated 10 times per second. You can drag a dialog on its left edge -- and only there. Most of the dialog is transparent for mouse clicks, so as not to disturb interaction with hotspots/terrain clicks. m. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
