[Script Writing/Testing Tip] Very "hacky" not recommended for finished script.

on_change_page_gridlabels = function (obj) { if (obj.get("gridlabels")) { //Do something with a page } else { //Stop doing something with a page } }, register_event_handlers = function () { on("change:page:gridlabels", function (obj) { on_change_page_gridlabels(obj); }); },

Sometimes you want to play around or work with an idea that deals with a page... and you need a quick "toggle" on off.... The "gridlabels" checkbox is just sitting there most often not doing much... just don't recommend highjacking it permanently. It's short sweet and you know what page you are on definitely.

In that GIF... I am using it to turn "on" and "off" a map making tool bar.

Stephen, how do you come up with these mapmaking systems; thats looking like it's going to be an awesome script and I can't wait to try the finished version.

I wanted something that obfuscated the grid, not completely simple to do when dealing with dungeon tiles.. facing and flipping often makes the grid obvious for some tile textures, e specially where the tiles meet. And I wanted auto dynamic light pathing for round shapes. And wanted to use the top row on the map layer as a ribbon toolbar..... and so I used the "gridlabels" checkbox as a tempary "toggle." Its actually very handy for quick short term coding, but not a good idea long term.
