startsOn (field) and StartsOn (property) - Unclear API

Sun 2. Dec 2018, 05:24

Hi there,

I've recently run into an issue where the state of flows weren't reset when running them through a single ArticyFlowPlayer consecutively. I was using startsOn to dynamically assign a dialogue flow to be executed in code. Subsequent executions wouldn't reset the state of the flow. As noted in the post below, I need to use "StartsOn" (the property) to reset the state. "startsOn" (the field) will not have the same effect.

I think this is misleading and will create difficult bugs for users.

Thanks,
Geoff

Hi handsomegeoff,

yes, this can be quiet confusing, that's why there is a note in both property documentations.
But i think in a future version we try to hide one of the properties better.

Best regards
