AnimateObject and Subroutine with Parameter
Quote from Darbdenral on February 23, 2021, 7:00 amIn the AnimateObject action, we can use a subroutine after the action is finished. But I can't seem to pass a parameter to the subroutine I want to run without errors.
I want to use the GotoPage action in a subroutine which requires the page Id as a string for a parameter.
This code gives error, I've tried various different methods..
AnimateObject "menuPanel" "230" "0" 500 "linear" "GoToPageAfterAnimate MainPage"I vaguely remember that I ran into this issue before, but I can't remember how I solved it..

You should use a different subroutine for each target page or use JavaScript instead.
Sorry!

@luishpYou should use a different subroutine for each target page or use JavaScript instead.
... or reserve a variable for the parameter e.g. ...
SetVar "[param1ForAnimateSubroutine]" "Page3" AnimateObject "menuPanel" "230" "0" 500 "linear" "animateSubroutine"
... the subroutine can then access the preset value in [param1ForAnimateSubroutine] ... and navigate accordingly.
Note: this method allows for multiple parameters to be set/accessed.

@gaevGaev, the variable method is a good work around.. That should work fine.. ;)
Thank you both for your help.
