checkbox

Checkbox Uniform Controls are used only for boolean variables. They simply set true or false to the variable, depending on the state of the Checkbox widget.

format:

checkbox[true]
checkbox[false]

supported types: Boolean
examples:

var SomeFlag = false; //! checkbox[true]
var SomeOtherFlag = false; //! checkbox[false]

color

Color Uniform Controls, as the name suggests, are used for setting color to variables. They can be used to output RGB or RGBA values depending on their argument count.

format:

color[R, G, B]
color[R, G, B, A]
color[MinA, A, MaxA, R, G, B]

where R, G, B, A, MinA, MaxA are numbers between 0.0 and 1.0.

supported types: ColorRGB, ColorRGBA
examples:

var colorRGB = Native.newColorRGB(); //! color[0.393, 0.871, 0.114]
var colorRGBA = Native.newColorRGBA(); //! color[0.255, 0.506, 0.91, 0.27]
var otherRGBA = Native.newColorRGBA(); //! color[0.2, 0.59, 0.6, 0.651, 1.0, 0.797]

combobox

Combobox Uniform Control is used for enumarations. It is presented as String dropdown list but essentially it is mapped to integer fields, therefore it can be used as replacement for integer slider UC. Value of this UC is an index of selected String value.

format:

combobox[SelectedIndex, "Value1", "Value2", ..., "ValueN"]

where SelectedIndex is of type int and must be between 0 and N - 1 (Remember: index always starts from 0). "Value1", "Value2", ..., "ValueN" are String values. You must provide at least one such value.

supported types: Number
examples:

var currentShape = 0; //! combobox[2, "Cone", "Sphere", "Torus", "Box"]
var lightingModel = 1; //! combobox[1, "Phong", "Cook-Torrance", "Oren-Nayar"]

widgets:

islider

Islider Uniform Controls are used to assign number values to the JavaScript's variables. They are almost the same as slider UCs, but with exception that they can only generate discrete, integer, values.

format:

islider[MinValue, Value, MaxValue]

where MinValue, Value, MaxValue are integer numbers.

supported types: Number
examples:

var intSlider = 2; //! islider[-5, 1, 7]

widgets:

slider

Slider Uniform Controls are used to assign number values to the JavaScript's variables. They are more general version of islider UC since they can generate real (floating point) values. Moreover they can also be used with Native vector variables (see examples below).

format:

slider[MinValue, Value, MaxValue]

where MinValue, Value, MaxValue are numbers or vectors. Vector values are represented by real (floating point) numbers separated by comma, and enclosed in brackets. For example "Vector2f(1.5, 2.4)" is represented by "(1.5, 2.4)".

supported types: Number, Vector2f, Vector3f, Vector4f
examples:

var floatSlider = 2.0; //! slider[-5, 1, 7]
var vec2Slider = Native.newVector2(); //! slider[(-5,-5), (1,1), (7,7)]
var vec3Slider = Native.newVector3(); //! slider[(-5,-5,-5), (1,1,1), (7,7,7)]
var vec4Slider = Native.newVector4(); //! slider[(-5,-5,-5,-5), (1,1,1,1), (7,7,7,7)]
