This one is stumping me: I have a link displayed as an HTML image. The link calls a macro called [email protected]:Controls and passes the calling Token ("Marco Polo" in this example) as it's parameter. Here is what the link is (when I print it using the broadcast(Link) command for debugging purpo...

Here's my code: [H: Symbols = json.append("", "<", "=", "!=", "<=", ">=", ">")] [H: broadcast(Symbols)] Here is the result in the Chat window: ["","=","!=","=",">=",">"]...

Did this issue ever get resolved?
I just want to know how to have my textarea control wrap.

I think that will do it.
Always a pleasure dealing with you gents.
Thanks.

I guess I didn't make my self clear: I know I can refresh a frame on the same machine by simply calling the macro that draws the frame, but I want the GM's action to refresh a frame on the Player's (a different person) computer. Is there a way to send a command to another computer terminal to refres...

Is it possible for the GM to have a player's frame (character sheet) redrawn from code. In my situation each player has a frame showing his character sheet. On the sheet, the current movement mode is displayed on it (walk, climb, swim, etc) as well as the movement limit (30 feet, 15 feet, etc). 1. A...

Can someone figure out why after running the red line, the code never comes back to the next (green) line. [H: macroName = ARG(0)] [H, IF(argCount()>1) : macroParams = ARG(1); macroParams = ""] [H, IF(argCount()>2) : dataToken = ARG(2); dataToken = ""] [H: macroLibName = substrin...

I ended up using the macro function in the end. For some strange reason it didn't work for me at first as far as using the original calling token's properties. Only after I manually called switchToken() to the original token did it use the correct properties. LIB:A was calling a macro on LIB:B On LI...

Thanks for the replies. I saw both of these suggestions beforehand.

I got around it, but UDF does not work for me here because the macro name is unknown (i.e. has to be determined) before execution. It's complicated.
But thanks anyways.

Is there a way to fetch a returning value from execLink() like macro.return does for MACRO() ?

In other words: after calling a certain macro, I can read the returned result by:
[H: MACRO(macroLinkText): params]
[H: Result = macro.return]

How do I retrieve the results of an execLink(macroLinkText)?

That did it for me.
Thanks a mil.

The image shows (no prob), but the tooltip is still not showing. What am I doing wrong? CODE [H: TokenID = ARG(0)] [H: TokenName = getName(TokenID)] [H: switchToken(TokenID)] [H: ImageFile = strformat('<img border=0 src="%s" />', getTokenImage(60))] <td style="padding:2px 2px; " ...

How do I place a tooltip over an image.
For example, say I wanted the token name to show when I hover over the token image in the Chat window. How would the code for it look like?

TIA.

#rantOn A single macro can only have a single return value, and output and return value is almost the same thing for MT macros. It really is a special situation as it is all developed/grown from simple chat-macros. A macro does not create output, it IS output. Takes a while to really understand it....

ah ok! so if if I understand it correctly you want the macro have TWO outputs! one to the chat with the html form and one returning some value to the caller macro! correct? Minor correction: The first output is to a frame (not the chat window). [R: frame(("frame name"):{[r:decode(htmlCode...
