In .Net I can assign a Tag to almost any control to give it a hidden value.

Is there something similar I can use in Opus? I've been all through the manual and searched and cannot find anything similar.

I basically want to be able to assign the same 'tag' to two controls, so on DragAndDrop I can see if the two controls being connected have the same tag.

I am doing a mini matching game with words. I have pulled all my data back from the database and selected 6 unique random records and put them into two Arrays. I then assign the text from array A to one set of textboxes and the text from Array B to another textbox set that have a droppable panel below them.

Also, is there any way of doing a multidimensional array, i.e. Array example = new Array[1,1];


Thanks in advance!

A couple others here know the ins and outs of Arrays, so I'm sure you'll get some great guidance.

Meanwhile on your last question. Opus uses standard ECMA (?) script... so a couple approaches that may be useful are nested arrays... and then also dual or parallel arrays working off the same index. Do a search here on terms:___ nest array, and also try___ nested array


You might also do a Search on____ property or properties
Objects (and variables (?)) can be extended. Similar to
Object1.color
Object1.size
Object4.size
Object4.movable

I've just not gone very far down that road.

Cheers.
