Animating graphic objects

12–49
For example, if you want F2 to set the value of a selected object’s tag
to 0, you would set up a display key for F2, using the [tag] parameter,
and then set up object keys for each object on the screen, specifying
which tag to use for each object.
Summary of steps
1. Create a graphic object.
2. In the Display Keys dialog box, associate a key with an RSView32
command. Use the [tag] placeholder as the command’s parameter.
To open the Display Keys dialog box, click the Animation
menu and then click Display Keys.
In the Press Action field, specify an RSView32 command with
[tag] as the command parameter.
3. Select the graphic object.
4. In the Object Keys dialog box, supply the tag name or character
string that will replace the placeholder.
To open the Objects Keys dialog box, click the Animation
menu and then click Object Keys.
In the Current [Tag] field, specify a tag name or a character
string.
At runtime, when the object is selected and the display key is pressed,
the contents of the Current [Tag] field replace [tag] in the RSView32
command.
