OpenMatrix is a mathematical scripting language.
The Reference Guide contains documentation for all functions supported in the OpenMatrix language.
Describes all of the blocks in the installed Activate library.
Takes diagram and auto corrects the links so that they all create orthogonal angles with one another.
Creates an activation link between srcBlock and destBlock. Connects two blocks with ports of type activation.
Creates a bus link between srcBlock and destBlock. Can link to other bus ports and explicit ports. Does not make an interferance block automatically when trying to connect bus port to implicit ports. Cannot connect to activation ports.
Creates an explicit link between srcBlock and destBlock. Can connect to other explicit ports and bus ports. Does not make an interferance block automatically when trying to connect explicit port to implicit ports.
Creates an implicit link between srcBlock and destBlock. Does not make an interferance block automatically when trying to connect an implicit port to explicit ports. Can connect implicit and explict ports in the ui but through the api you must connect an implicit port to an implicit port.
Returns an activation link in the diagram that is part of block. Can only link to other ports that are activation ports.
Returns a bus link in the diagram that is part of block.
Returns an explicit link in the diagram that is part of block.
Returns an implicit link in the diagram that is part of block.
Returns the color of a given link.
Returns the destination block of a given link.
Returns the name of a destination block of a given link.
Returns the destination port of a given link.
Returns the destination port number of a given link.
Returns the destination port IO type of a given link.
Returns the intermediate points of a given link.
Returns the source block of a given link.
Returns the name of a source block of a given link.
Returns the source port of a given link.
Returns the source port number of a given link.
Returns the source port IO type of a given link.
Returns the thickness of a given link.
Returns the type of a given link.
Sets the color of a link. Red is for activation links, green is for bus links, blue is for implicit links and explicit links are the rgba value of 64, 64, 64, 255.
Sets the points for a given link to pass through.
Sets the thickness of a link.
