Hello James,
you can do a ctrl-click on any patch to get a context menu for it. In
this context menu you can select "Publish Inputs". Once you select one
of your desired inputs to be published you have to give it a name.
- If you do this in the root of your document this published input
becomes a "Input Parameter" accessible from outside your composition.
(e.g. as "Input Parameter" in the View window)
- If you do this inside of a macro this input will become a new input
of that macro.
You can edit all your global parameters in the Viewer window by
clicking on the "Input Parameters" toolbar button. Unfortunately if
you want to access this input parameter somewhere else in your
composition you have to put in an input splitter (also cntrl-click on
that patch with the published input -> Inster Input Splitter...) and
connect from this new input splitter patch to every where you need
this parameter.
Is this what you are looking for?

Hello,
I have been looking for a way to set up some global variables for a
Quartz Composer document.
I have investigated using JavaScript and Structures but haven’t been
able to find a way or figure out what to do.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
James
