Sending GUI number to Global Table

Hello,

In my work I need to construct a custom GUI that captures values provided by the user. I am recording these in a global table. The GUI (at this point) is using an edit view to capture the value, and a coldlink to send the value to the global table (I only need to capture these values once per simulation run).

I am having trouble figuring out how to configure the coldlink attribute text.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks
Albert

Do you mean you're having trouble with the node path to enter into the coldlink? If so, here are three options:

If you set the GUI objectfocus variable to the data node of the global table (found with 'reftable(<tablename>)' ) then you can use relative values using @objectfocus+ followed by the relative path /1/2 would be row 1 column 2.

Alternatively you can right click on the cell you want, explore as tree, right click the node and set as so() and then in a script window execute nodetopath(so(),1) and the enter the string returned as the path.

Another way would be to use a coldinkx node with the expression gettablecell(<tablename>,<row>,<col>)

MAIN:/1/model/Tools/GlobalTables/GlobalTable3>variables/data/1/1

Replace "GlobalTable3" with your table's name.
Replace "/1/1" with row and column numbers: /R/C
