inDynamic(name, filter)
inDynamic(name, filter, options)
inDynamic(name, filter, options, defaultValue)
Parameters
name
(String, required):- The name of the port, e.g.
"My Dynamic Port"
- The name of the port, e.g.
filter
(Array, required):- The types which should be accepted for linking, e.g.
[OP_PORT_TYPE_VALUE,CABLES.OP_PORT_TYPE_OBJECT]
- The types which should be accepted for linking, e.g.
options
(Object, optional):- The port-options, have a look at the other port-definitions to see what’s possible
- E.g.
{"display": "range"}

defaultValue
(Any type, optional):- The default value to be set, can be any type, e.g.
123
- The default value to be set, can be any type, e.g.
Example
This is an op with one dynamic port which can be linked to a value or object port. If it is not linked it will display a range-slider. When the value on the dynamic port changes it will print the value to the developer console.
var dynPort = op.inDynamic(
"My Dynamic Port",
[
CABLES.OP_PORT_TYPE_VALUE,
CABLES.OP_PORT_TYPE_OBJECT
],
{
"display": "range"
},
123
);
dynPort.onChange = function() {
op.log("value changed: ", dynPort.get());
};
