Algodoo

How do you open the Scope display?

That's absolutely brilliant!

2 Xray,

Open the scope display by clicking on the "-" icon on the widget titled "Scope Display". To create widget from scratch, right click on green scope box > Show plot > Y-axis > angular velocity.

2 Kilinich,

Thanks for the compliment.

s_noonan - I must have a different version of Algodoo than you have because I do not see a widget titled Scope Display. All I see in the scene is a box with the word Scope written on it. My version of Algodoo is V2.0.2 b15. Am I missing something???

EDIT : I did what you said about right clicking on the green box, but I do not see any reference to plotting. Maybe that only shows with the enhanced (more expensive) version of Algodoo?

Yep, Plots is part of Algodoo for Education, sorry!

Well, I guess I'll have to purchase it.

EDIT: I am now the proud owner of Algodoo for Education!

Okay, now getting back to the scope display, I do not see a widget titled Scope Display. I do see something on the right side labled "Visualization", and when I click on it, there are tabs for selecting various forces to view, but nothing called "Scope Display". I could right click on the green box, and yes, I could set up a scope to view the waveform, but I'm wondering why I do not have a widget called Scope Display. HELP!!!

2 Xray,

I'm not sure why you don't see the "Scope Display" widget. Maybe it is off in the corner or not there. It should be a bar that says "Scope Display" followed by an eye ball, -, and X. Press on the "-" to expand it if you locate it. I made the scene with V2.0.2 b15, so I would expect you could run it with the same. You can look at the code by unzipping the .phz and opening Scene.phn with a text editor. Scene.phn does have the Scene.addWidget code, so I know its there.

s_noonan - thanks for your reply, and I apologize for being such a pest. I am having a problem with the upgrade because after closing Algodoo, it reverts back to Algodoo Physics. When I enter my name and license key, it upgrades to Algodoo Education, but then it reverts back to Algodoo Physics again after I close and re-open the program. I posted this question in the Forum, so maybe if I can get this problem solved, then the other problem of not having a Scope Display widget will correct itself (?).

EDITE - I uninstalled and reinstalled Algodoo, and now it opens as Education every time! (Hurray!). BUT.... I still do not see that "Scope Display" widget that you refer to. I can use the scope by right clicking on your green box, and I can visualize the waveforms, so even though I don't have that widget you talked about, I can still use the scope display.

By the way.... Nice job on this scene!

Now do another scene that demonstrates Frequency Modulation!

UPDATE: After I re-installed Agodoo, and then reloaded this scene, I now have the Scope widget showing up! So, apparently, I just needed a nice clean re-install to make everything work correctly. (I wonder if I could do that with my wife????)
