Get title of current scene

ncrossland · January 4, 2011 at 11:25 PM

Is there a way of retrieving the name / title of the current scene in 1.0.8.12 ?

I understand how to get one if you know the name of the scene you want, but not how to retrive the *current* scene.

Thanks,

try get(xml.scene);

I have not tested it yet but Klaus had a suggestion here.

You should use the concept of a state machine to determine which scene is loaded. When you trigger the event which loads the next scene such as 'onclick' you should call a function that changes the state and calls another function that makes changes dependent upon the new scene. So the onclick event has a function call with the new state passed as a parameter.

<hotsplot name="first"
...
onclick="switchScene(first);"
...
/>

<action name="switchScene">
if(hotspot[
...

try get(xml.scene);

Thanks - this worked a treat - I actually used

Code

get(scene[get(xml.scene)].title

to get the title of the current scene. I was using it to set a value of a text field, based on the scene's title.

I didn't want to have to use a "state machine" as this would involve duplicating a lot of code, making it harder to edit in the future. Thanks for everyone's help.

I use "get(scene[get(xml.scene)].name))" to get name of scene but it not return exactly. E.x: in xml, name of scene is "scene_IMG_2752_Panorama" but it return "scene_img_2752_panorama".

use additional attribute
"title" for example
additional attributes are keysensitive
