add line

[flexie]

Hi,

Ii get "parameter number 2 of function addLIneTool is invalid" from the following code. I'm sure the problem is simple to fix.

function doFibTime (fibBars)   {
var line1   = (fibBars * .25).toFixed(0); 
addLineTool(LineTool.VERT, line1, 2, Color.cyan, "line1");
} 

Thanks
Mark

Hi Mark,

when you used .toFixed(0) you converted the number to a text value. Try multiplying by 1 to convert back to a number. See this section in the Knowledgebase that describes what toFixed does.

nope, doesn't help. It seems as soon as I do some form of arithmetic operation on the variable, it hiccups.

Also, is there a limit to the number of input parameters that can be setup?

Thanks

As far as I can see Steve's suggestion is working fine.
In order to understand why it is not working for you please post a complete example of your code that illustrates the problem

here she be....


function doFibTime (start)
{

var vtemp = aSwingsIndex[1] - aSwingsIndex[2);
var temp1 = vtemp * start;
var line2 = vtemp * .382;

clearLineTool(LineTool.VERT);
addLineTool(LineTool.VERT, line2, 2, Color.cyan, "line1");

}


If I use "start" as the x variable it works fine, but the minute I do something before, (ie. vtemp or temp1 or line2, I get an error on parameter 2.

Thanks

ech, never mind... the problem is in the passing of the aSwingIndex, it must not be an integer elsewhere, cause I setup my own variables to track the peaks/valleys and it works fine.

Thanks for your efforts.

Hello Mark,

On the line where you declare vtemp, you have a syntax error.

aSwingsIndex[2);

should be:

aSwingsIndex[2];


Does this resolve the problem?

[flexie]

yup, a typo....... I couldn't figure out how to do copy & paste as whole/as compared to a bunch of single lines, so I retyped it.

Thanks though.
