Muliple Values with Script Parameter

April 5, 200421 yr

Enclosed is a sample file showing a technique of how to pass multiple values to a script using the pass script parameter function in FM7. This sample passes 3 values via the script parameter to set the RGB code to color text. I have not played around enough with it to determine if there is a length limit on the parameter itself.

Interesting. I made my own method up when I was dabbling in FM7. I used the LeftWords (or RightWords) and passed multiple parameters with spaces between them. This method isn't the best way, since it wouldn't work great if one or more of the parameters has a space in it, but for simple numbers etc it works great.
