arithmetic with placeholders

[prz24]

Hi everybody,
Is it possible to do some basic arithmetic operations with placeholders. I want to do something like that :
Action settings
Source: MouseClick
Action: Open Next Panorama
URL : {$(next)}
Pan/Tilt/Fov: $(ap)+$(*pc)/$(at)+$(*tc)/$(af)
pc and tc (for pan correction and tilt correction) being Custom Properties of the node
but it doesn't work
Thanks

Hi,
You would need to use variables to do the math, then use a variable placeholder in the Open Next Panorama action.
So, using a node changed source, you would set the value in a separate variable.
You would need to use the actions "Expert mode" so you can enter variable values as values.

Example:
User Data Custom Property
Pan Correction = variable name, pc
Skin variable = variable name, total_pc

You can then have a container that can be used to do the math.
Node Changed, Set Variable Value, total_pc = $(ap) Setting the current pan angle to the variable total_pc
Node Changed, Set Variable Value, total_pc + $(*pc) Add the user data custom property value to the variable total_pc
The variable total_pc will now be, pan angle + custom property.

The variable placeholder can now be used in the Open Next Panorama action.
$(*total_pc)/$(at)/$af)

Using the Node Changed source, this is worked out when you enter the node.
But you could stack the actions in a button.

Mouse Click, Set Variable Value, total_pc = $(ap)
Mouse Click, Set Variable Value, total_pc + $(*pc)
Mouse Click, Open Next Panorama, $(*total_pc)/$(at)/$af)
