How does the function return a value? (Resolved)

Hi, I have been using functions for a long time but today for the first time I need it to return a value. I haven't found where to look for this value, how do I get it after calling the function, please give me an example.

In the screenshot is an example of a function that should return left or right.

textvar=function.blockleftright(2,2,4)

You assign a text variable to the function as above.

textvar=function.blockleftright(2,2,4)

I'm sorry, but I don't understand how you do it.

My mistake, I thought your function had three parameters (I saw the variables).

in a new block declare a variable, lrValue as a string variable.

set lrValue=function.blockLeftright

lrValue will now contain the string "left" or "right".

I can't figure out how to do this in events or is this a java script you have?

Please show a screenshot.

It's times like this that I feel dumb.

To use return values, you will need to double click your function (as if you're about to rename your function) and you will have an option to set the "return type", either number or string.

This will change how the function works, I.e. you can no longer call the function as an action anymore, and can only call the function as an expression (e.g. You can set a Text object's text to "function.block-left-right").

Now when you said about double-clicking I checked carefully and found that when creating a function you have to select the return type. Now everything is clear to me.

Thanks Jase00!
