Hi

Here is the my problem:

I have an instance into the scene.
I want to remove it and after ,via loadMTXStr, change some xml node and put it again into the scene.

I've tried this:

MTSBaseComponent.RemoveObject( "myInstanceName" );

loadMTXStr( '<MTSInstance Name="myInstanceName">........</MTSInstance>' );

But it seems to execute removeObject after loadMTXStr

can you help me to resolve the question?

Hi Rik,

I would place the calls to both these actions in an animator to make absolutely sure one gets called before the other. Let me know if you need more info.

Hi,

I solved the problem using:

function draw(){

loadMTXStr( ...... );

}


setTimeout("draw()",500);


but I'm not sure that is a right way

( is a litle strange )

maybe RemoveObject function is an independent task.

Sounds like a bug, are you using the RemoveObject VETDispatch xml call? You should probably try to do this in an action in the mtx, one after the other.

I will try to look into this... perhaps we can add an event to handle when remove object is done so you don't have to set a timer. In the meantime, perhaps you're timer should instead loop and check to see if the removed object node is null or undefined before loading the new node.

Hi
I've strange result with:

MTSBaseComponent.RemoveObjectAndDependencies( myInstance);
MTSBaseComponent.RemoveObject( myInstance);

and

<MTSAction Name="deleteInstance" Type="Script" >
<VETDispatchCall Function="MTSBaseComponent::RemoveObjectAndDependencies( myInstance)"/>
</MTSAction>


I want to delete different instances at the same time using more calls to the RemoveObjectAndDependencies function

So I wait 1 second to redraw updated instances but sometime, in a random way, some instances is drawed and others not



thanks a lot for your help
