Stop Animation? AKA noloop()

Posted by MarkS on Oct 20, 2009

Is there a loop() / noloop() equivalent in Nodebox, like in Processing?

(Haven't tried the programme yet, just looking at the reference link on this site)

No, there is no equivalent in NodeBox. This is because we don't have separate event handlers (mousePressed/mouseReleased) that could call redraw or loop, so you'll have to continuously redraw.

Do you need this functionality for a specific reason? Perhaps we can look into that?

Thank you fdb,
Processing, though not ideal for interactivity either, is already used for quickly creating cognition (stare at the dot kind of things) experiments. I was looking into NodeBox hoping to use the existing python code and osx Core* features.
