Drive table variable with slider?

BHarris

Is there any way to drive a table variable with a slider?

 

E.g. suppose I have this:

 

New Table( "TableVariableSliderExample",
	Add Rows( 100 ),
	New Table Variable( "scaleFactor", 1.5 ),
	New Column( "x",
		Numeric,
		"Continuous",
		Set Values(
			[1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20,
			21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38,
			39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56,
			57, 58, 59, 60, 61, 62, 63, 64, 65, 66, 67, 68, 69, 70, 71, 72, 73, 74,
			75, 76, 77, 78, 79, 80, 81, 82, 83, 84, 85, 86, 87, 88, 89, 90, 91, 92,
			93, 94, 95, 96, 97, 98, 99, 100]
		)
	),
	New Column( "Sin",
		Numeric,
		"Continuous",
		Formula( Sin( (:scaleFactor * :x * 6.28) / 100 ) ),
	)
)

... is there any way to create a slider that will modify :scaleFactor and cause the data and any associated plots to live-update?

You can have slider in separate window (the slider window creation could be stored to table script for example)

Names Default To Here(1);

dt = New Table("TableVariableSliderExample",
	Add Rows(100),
	New Table Variable("scaleFactor", 1.5),
	New Column("x",
		Numeric,
		"Continuous",
		Set Values(
			[1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23,
			24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44,
			45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56, 57, 58, 59, 60, 61, 62, 63, 64, 65,
			66, 67, 68, 69, 70, 71, 72, 73, 74, 75, 76, 77, 78, 79, 80, 81, 82, 83, 84, 85, 86,
			87, 88, 89, 90, 91, 92, 93, 94, 95, 96, 97, 98, 99, 100]
		)
	),
	New Column("Sin", Numeric, "Continuous", Formula(Sin((:scaleFactor * :x * 6.28) / 100)), )
);


sliderValue = dt << Get Table Variable("scaleFactor");
New Window("Example",
	Panel Box("Slider Box",
		sb = Slider Box(0, 10, sliderValue, 
			dt << Set Table Variable("scaleFactor", sliderValue)
		)
	)
);

or in some cases you might want to build UI which contains the slider AND datatable.
