dev_inspect_ctrldev_inspect_ctrlDevInspectCtrlDevInspectCtrldev_inspect_ctrl — Open a window to inspect one or more control variables.

Signature

dev_inspect_ctrl( : : Variable : )

Herror dev_inspect_ctrl(const Hlong Variable)

Herror T_dev_inspect_ctrl(const Htuple Variable)

void DevInspectCtrl(const HTuple& Variable)

static void HOperatorSet.DevInspectCtrl(HTuple variable)

def dev_inspect_ctrl(variable: MaybeSequence[Union[int, float, str]]) -> None

Description

dev_inspect_ctrldev_inspect_ctrlDevInspectCtrlDevInspectCtrldev_inspect_ctrl opens an inspection window to display the contents of one or more control variables.

The standard inspection window displays the variable values with some optional statistics in a table. The window title is generated from the given parameter names. For some semantic types a special representation exists, e.g., functions are displayed as function plot by default. For more information, see the chapter “Inspecting Variables” in the “HDevelop User's Guide”.

You can pass a tuple of variables in VariableVariableVariablevariablevariable to open an inspection window for multiple variables. It is also possible to override the default inspection mode by including a string literal as the first element of the tuple:

'tuple'"tuple""tuple""tuple""tuple":

Show the values in the default inspection window even if the semantic type of the variable has a special representation.

'plot'"plot""plot""plot""plot":

Plot the values of numeric variables against their tuple index.

'plot_xy'"plot_xy""plot_xy""plot_xy""plot_xy":

Plot the values of numeric variables as X-Y pairs. The number of variables must be even, with each pair of variables having the same length.

Note that no expressions are evaluated inside the call of dev_inspect_ctrldev_inspect_ctrlDevInspectCtrlDevInspectCtrldev_inspect_ctrl, but only the contained parameter names are parsed. Therefore, operations like, e.g., accessing a specific tuple range or arithmetic tuple operations need to be done beforehand.

Normally, the window contents will be updated whenever the variables change. However, the update behavior can be influenced by the operator dev_update_vardev_update_varDevUpdateVarDevUpdateVardev_update_var and the Update Variable preference.

The window can be closed by pressing the Close button or by calling dev_close_inspect_ctrldev_close_inspect_ctrlDevCloseInspectCtrlDevCloseInspectCtrldev_close_inspect_ctrl.

Attention

This operator is not supported for code export.

Parameters

VariableVariableVariablevariablevariable (input_control)  integer(-array) HTupleMaybeSequence[Union[int, float, str]]HTupleHtuple (integer / real / string) (int / long / double / string) (Hlong / double / HString) (Hlong / double / char*)

Name of the variable to be checked.

Example (HDevelop)

read_image (Image, 'fabrik')
regiongrowing (Image, Regions, 3, 3, 6, 100)
area_center (Regions, Area, Row, Column)
dev_inspect_ctrl (Area)
dev_inspect_ctrl (['plot_xy', Row, Column])

Result

If the values of the specified parameters are correct, dev_inspect_ctrldev_inspect_ctrlDevInspectCtrlDevInspectCtrldev_inspect_ctrl returns 2 ( H_MSG_TRUE) . Otherwise, an exception is raised and an error code returned.
