HTML and variable assigning

MPkg — Mon, 11 Dec 2023 14:08:47 GMT

Hello,

I have Vizlib advanced text object:

='<html>' &'<svg viewbox="0 0 880 181" width="100%" height="100%">' //T1 &'<text text-anchor=middle font-size=24 font-weight=bold x="40" y="20">T1</text>' &'<rect x="15" y="30" width="50" height="26" fill="RGB(0,255,0)"/>' &'<text text-anchor=middle x="40" y="50">first</text>' &'<rect x="15" y="55" width="50" height="26" fill="RGB(0,255,0)"/>' &'<text text-anchor=middle x="40" y="75">sec</text>' //T2 &'<text text-anchor=middle font-size=24 font-weight=bold x="100" y="20">T2</text>' &'<rect x="75" y="30" width="50" height="26" fill="RGB(0,255,0)"/>' &'<text text-anchor=middle x="100" y="50">first</text>' &'<rect x="75" y="55" width="50" height="26" fill="RGB(0,255,0)"/>' &'<text text-anchor=middle x="100" y="75">sec</text>' &'</svg>' &'</html>'

I know that I can add <a href='https://url>some text</a> to open a link when I click on T1 or T2.

What I actually need is when I click on T1 I make a selection on the Field Test: T1 (Field Test has two values T1 and T2).

I created a Vizlib action on Vizlib advanced text object:

And I thought if I can assign a value to vTest based on if I click on T1 or T2 in text box.

Is it possible to assign a value to a variable with some HTML at all, or do I need to change item, and try different approach?

Thanks in advance!

Have a look to the action "Set Variable" instead.

Thank you very much Mr. Vincent.
Correct me if I am wrong, but this action will trigger regardless of me clicking to T1 or T2 in the box? Am I right?

Yes, this is the action for the whole object, so the same action wherever you click in its boundaries.

Great, thanks.

What I need now is to somehow assign different value based on if I click on T1 or T2 on the box. I know that I can open a link based on this click, but what about assigning? I am not sure if this is possible at all, so maybe I should change the item and approach and not waste time on this solution.

In this case maybe you should put 2 different advance text objects instead.
