fraction

I m looking fo a way to instantiate dynamically accordingly to a n number (as variable) the draw of n several gridshape (let say @sphape sphere), and have access to their different gl parameters, like at first position.

I think the best way to this is doing would be with javascript? i d like to have some confirmation if it's the best strategy, and if so, a little example to how to start to code this. 

It's really basic, but i dont find in the jitter examples some useful cues to help me to do this. I m really new to javascript in max, and this is just a little part of the whole code in this max project. I m stuck with that step. I ve explored other ways like abstraction with arguments etc, but no, i think java would be the best.

You can pass the message "createGridshapes n" to this code via js object and it will draw n spheres

autowatch=1; // this is for js object to recognize code changes on save
gridshapes = new Array(); // create array
glContext = "world" // set gl context

function createGridshapes(numGridShapes) 
{
    for (var i = 0; i < numGridShapes; i++) 
        {
            gridshapes[i] = new JitterObject("jit.gl.gridshape", glContext);
            gridshapes[i].dim = [20,20];
            gridshapes[i].shape = "sphere";
            gridshapes[i].lighting_enable = 1;
            //gridshapes[i].position = [a,b,c]; // a,b,c are coordinates, better use a 3 plane matrix for different instances of gridshape matrix.getcell(i);
         }
}
