lingo-l 3d rotate() y value flip flop weirdness ------ ( not the transform.rotation bug)

hi all, I'm getting inconsistent integer values returned whilst rotating a ipix exported 3d sphere using .rotate(0, somevalue, 0) This is problematic as I'm using the rotation vector to calculate the current rotation position in degrees. a_|_b c | d a = vector (0, x, 0)

lingo-l consistent way to check for existence of member

hi list, does anyone know a way to check for the existence of a member with a given name that works for both dmx and dmx2004? I know the following 2 methods, but it would be nicer to have a consistent method for all versions: on memberExists (someName) return (member(someName).membernum

Hi James, thanks for the suggestion. I'm not doing any other rotations at present. I'm using abs() on the x and z axes as occasionally, and this is maybe where the problem lies, sometimes they equal -180. I'm using the x and z axes with the y axis to determine which quarter i'm in.

Would this work? put ((member does not exist).number 0) -- 0 Nope, that will fail if the scriptExecutionStyle is set to 10 as the invalid member reference returns VOID, and VOID does not have a number property and so a script error will occur. The problem here is that prior to MX'04 all the
