Open Stage Control v0.45.0 released

Shortly after v0.44.0, here comes another release bringing a few bug fixes and a really cool new feature… javascript ! This new property syntax allows writing formulas in pure javascript:

JS{{
// comments !
function hello(){
  console.log(@{this.id} + ' says yay !')
}
hello()
return @{fader_1}
}}

What’s also really cool is that you can now debug your code easily with the parsing errors printed in the browser console (F12).

JS{{
x = 1;
// JS{{}} error: ReferenceError: x is not defined at line 2
// (we are in js "strict mode", declaring global variables is not allowed)
// var x = 1; // would have worked
}}
