Hi,

I am developing an application with several scenes.

I created a dlg Panel, but I cannot attach it to a scene.

Also, I cannot remove it either.

How can I use the panel associated to a specific scene, and how can I remove it.


thanks :)

You can use the parent command to parent the panel to viz.SCREEN and specify the scene number. To remove a panel you can use the remove() command:
import viz
import vizdlg
import vizact

viz.go()

panel = vizdlg.Panel(padding=15,border=False)
panel.addItem(viz.addText('Panel for scene 2'))
panel.background.alpha(0.6)
panel.background.color(viz.BLACK)

panel.parent(viz.SCREEN,scene=2)
panel.setPosition(0.4,0.6)
panel.setScale([2,2,2])

gallery = viz.addChild('gallery.ive')
court = viz.addChild('court.ive',scene=2)

vizact.onkeydown('1',viz.scene,1)
vizact.onkeydown('2',viz.scene,2)
vizact.onkeydown('3',panel.remove)

Thank you Jeff, it was very helpful.

May I ask why isn't those methods documented? Does the vizdlg Panel have a super class I am not aware of? Even so, I think that should be documented.

I leave you guys the suggestion :)

Once again, thank you very much!
