  • 1.  Scripting material coordinates?

    Posted 07-21-2012 22:38

    Hello - I'm looking to see if it's possible to adjust the x or y texture coordinate position of a material. And would this script be able to handle every instance of this material within my page? In general terms, using a text object to control the material position...

    If Text = "0" then

    material.posX = 0.0

    end if

    If Text = "1" then

    material.posX = 7.5

    end if



    Can somebody help me fill in the blanks?

    Thanks!

    Brian

    Hi Brian,

    Looking at the API SDK it looks like you can already modify the texture position from the scripting.. Texture coordinates are a property of the object that the material gets applied to (they are not a property of the material itself). Take a look in the helpfile under the xpTexturedObject class and you see .TexturePosX and .TexturePosY.

    I think you would just need to do something like this:



    scene.GetObjectByName("TheQuad1", myQuad)

    myQuad.TexturePosX = 1.3
