Articy Forum

Hello,
I'm new here and I'm just discovering this great tool.
I just wonder is it possible (somehow) to display value of a variable?
I'm creating a character creation sheet, where player has a 3 stats (variables) and a few points to add to each stats from the pool of points. Is it possible to display available points (it's also a variable) in simulation mode?

Hello szczypiorofix,

You can display variable states during simulation mode with the property inspector.

Click and drag at the right side of the screen to split the view (or create a new window, if you work with two monitors).



Double click the Property Inspector icon to start it.



Start your simulation at the desired spot, then select the “Variable state” tab in the Property Inspector.



Now, you can see how your variables change during the simulation.




Best regards,
Karsten

Thanks!
That's not exactly what I was looking for but was helpful .

I thought it's possible to print/draw a value of a variable somewhere in instructions, flow fragments etc. eg "print( getProp( getObj("Chr_Manfred")), "DisplayName"), but I suppose it's impossible in Articy Draft but e.g. Unity.

Hi,

If you use print(), the result will be visible in the Log tab. It is only usable in instructions and output-pins, though.

E.g. print(Skills.SkillSword) to display the variable value.


Best regards,
