Action grpups from Javascript in Lectora Online

Hi Joe,

First of all...happy and creative 2020... Somewhere last year you created a script that can be used to 'Run ActionGroups from Javascript' by adding some prefix (EDU_ ) in front of it...and then in your Javascript you can just call that specific name without having to worry about HTMLnames of those actiongroups. I added that to my scripts-workflow and it works perfectly in Lectora Online..

Now however i am trying to use Seamless Play on a title... and your script now doesnot recognize the prefixes anymore. This is the function based on your setup i made and use....

function definePresetforActiongroups(){ // set whatever prefix you want to use for object names that will map to their HTML object var objectPrefix = "ACT"; console.log("preset is "+objectPrefix); var chlds = getDisplayDocument().head.childNodes; for (var i=0;i<chlds.length;i++) { if (chlds[i].tagName && chlds[i].tagName.toLowerCase().indexOf('script')>-1 && chlds[i].innerHTML && chlds[i].innerHTML.indexOf('trivWeb20Popups')>-1 ) { var re = new RegExp("var\\s*([^\\s]*).*//("+objectPrefix+"[^\\s]*)",'g'); var s = chlds[i].innerHTML; s.replace(re, function(match, g1, g2) { eval("window."+g2+"="+g1); }); } } }

If you can check whats causing this not to work in Seamless... would be great...

Thx,

Hi Math! happy and creative 2020 to you also!

Well, here is a quick guess:

Change: eval("window."+g2+"="+g1);
To: getDisplayWindow()[g2] = g1;

Let me know.

Hi Joe,

Alas this didnot fix it.

Getting this error in my console...

Uncaught (in promise) ReferenceError: ACT_changetextfields is not defined
at Array.forEach (<anonymous>)

Too bad i get quite some more errors in Seamless Play on my setup... and for now i cannot share my project because its quite complex. Either i forget SP for now, or build a SPA like approach for it..

 

Thx,

Math

In fact after proper check only the Action Groups call and a dynamic fill in of YouTube movies isnot working properly in Seamless Play... so if i can get that working that would be great...

 

This works properly in Seamless Play

//ACT_changetextfields.issueActions(1001);
og154956.issueActions(1001);

This doesnot work in Seamless Play

ACT_changetextfields.issueActions(1001);
//og154956.issueActions(1001);

In normal mode both work....
