Missing user parameters icon for child scripts

Post by bknight-i3drobotics »

I recently updated to the new coppeliaSim. Since the update, I have been unable to see user parameter icon for models/objects when adding new scripts. In previous versions when a script was added the icon appeared along with the script. Previously created scenes with scripts have the icon visible. This issue comes when I add a new script to an object.
How do I open this dialogue without the icon? http://www.coppeliarobotics.com/helpFil ... meters.htm
Or rather how do I make this icon appear? Image

Hello,

just type

Code: Select all

sim.setUserParameter(objectHandle,'@enable','')
in the Lua commander.

Cheers

Perfect, thanks!

Would be nice if there was a UI way of enabling this like a tick box in the object properties. I will post this to feature requests.

Also is there a way to disable it again?

I have tried:

Code: Select all

sim.setUserParameter(objectHandle,'@disable','')
But this didn't work.

To disable it, simply double-click the icon and remove all parameters.

Did you solve the problem?

The command sim.setUserParameter(objectHandle,'@enable','') doesn't work.

It should work. Just make sure that you have a child script or customization script attached to the same object.

The command doesn't work. Here is my output after inserted the command:

> sim.setUserParameter(objectHandle,'@enable','')
[string "SANDBOX SCRIPT"]:1: One of the function's argument type is not correct. (sim.setUserParameter)

??
Did you really use objectHandle litterally? You need to replace that with the handle of the object you want to enable that feature! So if your object's name is myJoint, you'd do:

Code: Select all

objectHandle=sim.getObjectHandle('myJoint')
sim.setUserParameter(objectHandle,'@enable','')
