[r192] Function with too many parameters

0 favourites
  • 3 posts
  • Problem Description

    Functions can't have 17~18 or more parameters, as it breaks the call function window, or it doesn't fit (specially if a parameter has multiple lines)

    With 20 parameters, the "Add parameter" and "Remove parameter" buttons disappear

    Steps to Reproduce Bug

      Call a function with a lot of parameters

    Observed Result

  • This is how the function call looks using "Set return value". It would be nice to have an action like "Call function by expression" or something like that, that would look like this, but without it requiring a return value

  • For the next build I added a 'Call expression' action to the Function object which should be more convenient for long parameter lists. Closing as that's probably a better solution than using the UI.
