A script in DrGeo is a first class citizen (i.e. a Smalltalk class) you can use several time on different objects. Therefore, the script instance can hold states with its attributes. A script is mostly like any other math object model in Dr. Geo. Hilaire -- Dr. Geo http://drgeo.eu http://google.com/+DrgeoEu

The main difference is philosophical: Dr. Geo is an open box, Geogebra a close box. Dr. Geo is a mustang car you may want to mix in. Geogebra is a bmw car you don't want to mix in.

Re: [Pharo-users] Dr Geo: A point needs to be animated over a preexisting object?
Hi, What is the exact relation between blue and black points? I guess it depends on the samples. You can build a script to constraint the black point depending on the blue point and the direction, then embed this script on your Dr. Geo sketch. However, Dr. Geo Smalltalk sketch[1] fit better your needs, for several reasons: 1. you can import your data samples (100 or 1000 samples, up to you), 2. do the necessary interpolation calculus from these samples 3. build up the model using Dr. Geo Smalltalk API 4. animate with the specific #do: and #update: messages from the API Check for documentation[2]. French version is more up to date for Dr. Geo scripting however in your case Dr. Geo Smalltalk sketch is well documented in the English documentation, thanks to Edward Cherlin contribution. You can watch Dr. Geo TV[3] on the programming topic. I hope to produce more step by step video tutorials on Dr. Geo programming, as the recent ones I announced here a few days ago. However the documentation comes with several examples easy to understand and the whole API is described.

[Pharo-users] Dr Geo: A point needs to be animated over a preexisting object?
Hi, Here comes again. Sorry I send it from a wrong address. Forwarded Message Subject:Dr Geo: A point needs to be animated over a preexisting object? Date: Mon, 21 Sep 2015 20:09:29 -0500 From: Offray Vladimir Luna Cárdenas To: Any question about pharo is welcome Hi, Some of my students are exploring modeling as a tool to understand physical phenomena. In particular they're working on uniform movement. The idea is to take data from a lab experiment on uniform movement and plot it on a geometrical program and then use animation to reproduce the lab movement inside the plotting to see if they can get the analitycal expression which models the movement. The bridge between experimental data and the analytical expression is animation as a way to validate, reconstruct models. We're considering geogebra and DrGeo for this. I'm more familiar with smalltalk that with javascript, but the question we're facing is how to animate a point following a vector direction but going beyond it. Considering the following figure: So the idea is that A, B, C and D are points in a position versus time graph taken from the real lab experiment. "p" is a point which will follow the trajectory of the vector "u", which has the same direction of the segment that goes from A to B (it can be even overlapped) and is animated describing the red trajectory going for p to p' (which has the same x value of D, but a different y value). A way to do it will be put and invisible line that passing from A to B (and beyond) and make the point "p" move on it, but we're wondering if there is a way to just give vector direction and magnitude and make the point move, without creating an explicit line before. Seems that nor geogebra or DrGeo can deal with animating a free object following a (vectorial described) trajectory. Is this possible? Cheers, Offray
