I'm getting the following error: 'HotVariables cannot perform the operation top24'. It is being triggered by the following array code: (!BPM / (!LoopSpeed into: #({0@(!BPM/2)} {0.25@(!BPM/3)} {0.5@(!BPM/4)} {0.75@(!BPM/8)} {1@(!BPM/16)}))) I'm guessing that into: arrays cannot work with hot variables then? Or is there another problem with my code? Thanks! [This message has been edited by JackRosete (edited 27 October 2006).] IP: Logged |

I also tried using ('bpm' asHotValue) in place of !BPM, but no luck  IP: Logged |

Yeah, you definitely can't use {0@!HotValue} in an array - it's a smalltalk vs. capytalk thing, and the need for that to be a literal value as opposed to an EventExpression. I don't have an alternative approach to try for that, unfortunately - maybe someone does? IP: Logged |

Thanks for the info... I have now found a workaround using some other scripts. But I wanted to know whether there was a syntactical error in my code, or whether it was a problem like the one you described, Capytalk vs Smalltalk. Cheers! IP: Logged |

Although an into: array cannot contain hot values, a regular array can. For example, the following expression might do what you need: 1 bpm: ((5 * !LoopSpeed) of: #({!BPM* 2} {!BPM * 3} {!BPM * 4} {!BPM * 8} {!BPM *16} )) Only difference is, this would jump to discrete multiples of the BPM rather than smoothly interpolating from one to the next. For smooth interpolation, you could use: 1 bpm: ((((5 * !LoopSpeed) of: #({!BPM* 2} {!BPM * 3} {!BPM * 4} {!BPM * 8} {!BPM *16}))) smooth: !BPM bpm s) IP: Logged |
