Hscript In Functions

[Dries]

string tc() {
	d = padzero(20,3);
	return d;
}

This is what I get:

/obj -> echo `tc()`

3

/obj ->

Can I not use hscript commands in a function then?

You have to declare your variables Dries!

string tc() {
	string d = padzero(20,3);
	return d;
}

Duh, didn't you know beforehand you were going to find the solution right after you posted the question??

Thanks, very much appreciated.

Yeah, it's a bit of a gotcha since I think you can sometimes get away with not declaring float variables.

Thanks for your understandig edward :-)

While I can get away with this simple function to generate a timecode to us in a Font COP, don't you think it would be a good idea to have $TC next to $T and $F as well?

for 24 or 25fps timecodes it is simple enough, but there are also dropframe timecodes and PAL/NTSC issues...

Tip for H9?

I think it would be easier in python.
