Details

Syntax

CALL NOTIFY (graph-output-name, '_getValue', name<, hot-list-id>);

Argument Type Description
name C specifies the name of the segment hotspot if the hot-list-id variable is included; otherwise, returns the name of the current GRSEG entry
hot-list-id N returns the identifier of an SCL list containing information about the currently selected hotspot. The SCL list contains the following items:

List Item Type Description
'SPOTID' N the number of the graph segment within the graph, beginning with 1. If no segment has been selected, the value of SPOTID is 0.
'SPOTTYPE' N a number identifying the type of graph segment containing the hotspot; for a description of the values, see _getInfo in this class.
'TEXT' C the text of the selected segment
'X' N the X coordinate of the selection, in pixels
'Y' N the Y coordinate of the selection, in pixels


Details

The name argument must refer to a segment hotspot and not to a regular hotspot.

The _getValue method automatically creates the list returned in hot-list-id. Do not attempt to pass an already existing list to this method.
