Several actions for button

2

Hey @Alexander

what you can do is to push multiple buttons with one button.

If you want to insert something into two tables:

  • Button 1 Add Row to Table 1
  • Button 2 Add Row to Table 2
  • Button 3 Push Buttons -> Button 1, Button 2

BUT there is one restriction:
The buttons are kind of triggered simultaniously. That means, your Button 2 does not wait for results of Button 1 and can therefor not reference a row that is created with Button 1.

This will NOT work:

  • Button 1 makes a calculation and creates a new row in table A
  • Button 2 reads the value of the new row of table A and uses it for table B
  • Button 3 Push Buttons -> Button 1, Button 2

Example workaround I used in the Game: LIP2: Out of the dark 🕯 :

  • Formula Z on the Canvas makes a calculation
  • Button 1 refernces the calculation Z for table A
  • Button 2 references the calcuation Z for table B
  • Button 3 Push Buttons -> Button 1, Button 2
