getVar(id).settings.local() (since beta 0.3) Makes the Var element accessible only from the script of the current PennController instance (default setting). If a Var element with the same named was made global before (using .settings.global()—see above) then the Var element reverts to being local (while keeping its current value), meaning that any further Var element with …

tooltip.settings.label
getTooltip(id).settings.label(“text”) (since beta 0.3) Resets the text of the validation button. Example: [js highlight=”15″ try=”true”]newAudio(“sentence”, “test.mp3”) .settings.disable() .print() .play() , newTooltip(“instruction”, “After the audio is done playing, you can replay it as many times as you want”, “Please wait”) .settings.disable() .print( getAudio(“sentence”) ) , getAudio(“sentence”) .wait() .settings.enable() , getTooltip(“instruction”) .settings.label(“OK”) .settings.enable() .wait() [/js] Adds a …

getTooltip(id).key(“keys”) or getTooltip(id).key(“keys”, “no click”) or getTooltip(id).key(keycode) or getTooltip(id).key(keycode, “no click”) (since beta 0.3) Makes it possible to validate the tooltip by pressing a key. You can either pass a string of keys, or pass the keycode of a specific key (e.g. 13 for enter/return). If you pass a non-null second parameter (e.g. “no click”) …
tooltip.settings.frame
getTooltip(id).settings.frame() or getTooltip(id).settings.frame(“frame-style frame-width frame-color”) (since beta 0.3) Will add a frame surrounding the element to which the tooltip is attached when it is printed. You can optionally define the aesthetics of the frame by passing a string following the CSS format for borders. [js highlight=”5″ try=”true”]newImage(“myImage”, “square.png”) .print() , newTooltip(“myTooltip”, “This is a square”) …
tooltip.wait
getTooltip(id).wait() or getTooltip(id).wait(“first”) or getTooltip(id).wait(test) (since beta 0.3) Waits until the tooltip is validated and disappears before evaluating and executing the next commands. If you call wait(“first”), then if the tooltip has already been validated at least once by the time this command is evaluated, the next commands are evaluated and executed right away. If …
