error
Syntax
member(whichCastmember).model(whichModel).sds.error
Description
3D #sds modifier property; indicates the percentage of error tolerated by the modifier when
synthesizing geometric detail in models.
This property works only when the modifier’s
subdivision property is set to #adaptive. The
tension and depth (3D) properties of the modifier combine with the error property to control
the amount of subdivision performed by the modifier.
Example
The following statement sets the error property of the #sds modifier of the model named Baby
to 0. If the modifier’s tension setting is low, its depth setting is high, and its subdivision
setting is
#adaptive, this will cause a very pronounced effect on Baby’s geometry.
member("Scene").model("Baby").sds.error = 0

on EvalScript
Syntax
on EvalScript aParam
statement(s)
end
Description
System message and event handler; in a Shockwave movie, contains statements that run when the
handler receives an
EvalScript message from a browser. The parameter is a string passed in from
the browser.
• The EvalScript message can include a string that Director can interpret as a Lingo statement.
Lingo cannot accept nested strings. If the handler you are calling expects a string as a
parameter, pass the parameter as a symbol.
• The on EvalScript handler is called by the EvalScript() scripting method from JavaScript
or VBScript in a browser.
The Director player for Java doesn’t support the
on EvalScript handler. To
enable communication between an applet and a browser, use Java, JavaScript, or VBScript.
