onclick.local, ondrag.local, onresize.local: what are they for ?
Mar 26 2014 | 11:06 am
Hello,
In the jsui help patch, there's the 2d vector control example.
One can see lines of code using the onresize.local, onclick.local and ondrag.local variables.
First I do not understand when those lines are executed because they are outside any function (see shortened code below).
Second, what are they for ?
Thank you in advance.
Roald Baudoux
function onresize(w,h)
{
...
}
onresize.local = 1; //private
function onclick(x,y)
{
...
}
onclick.local = 1; //private
function ondrag(x,y)
{
...
}
ondrag.local = 1; //private
