How to control a graphic object in other panel.

[BenjaminSeeker]

Now I want to control a graphic object in other panel.
For example, I want input some parameter into a popup panel, then add a line to a table in mother panel.

Hello,

with the notation "modulename.panelname;shapename" you can modify graphical objects in another panel for the same user interface.
For details please have a look at the online help: CONTROL --> Control graphics --> Graphics objects --> Access shapes in other panels and modules.

For passing parameters to a popup panel you can use $-parameters. For returning data from a popup panel you can use the return values (dyn_float and dyn_string).

Hello,

to be able to use the return values you have to use one of the ChildPanelOn*Return-functions to open the child panel. When closing the child panel you have to use PanelOffReturn().

Small typo: it is "modulename.panelname:shapename" (colon, not semicolon)
