Hello
I am creating a small script that needs to read matrix3 values from a file but I cannot convert them back to matric format as they save to file as string.
They appear as “(matrix3[.........])"”
(the double quote is from the listener)
any idea?

I know everyone says “never use the execute command” but in this case it really does the trick for you.
matrix3String = "(matrix3 [1,0,0] [0,1,0] [0,0,1] [0,0,0])" --This is essentially how you have read it in from the file
"(matrix3 [1,0,0] [0,1,0] [0,0,1] [0,0,0])" --Listener Output
execute matrix3String
(matrix3 [1,0,0] [0,1,0] [0,0,1] [0,0,0]) --Listener Output
Hope that gets you what you need!

Execute? A simple readValue should work.

Thanks
I manged to do it with an embedded execute like this:
(execute (execute viewval))
where viewval = “"(matrix3 [0.707107,0.353553,-0.612372] [-0.707107,0.353553,-0.612372] [0,0.866025,0.5] [-73.7862,38.0014,-166.667])"”

Maybe I’ve got the problem… I guess (watching this double quote) so your matrix3 data is formated as string to external file (as in the third example - “text3.txt") and you read it back from the file using readLine(), right?
myVar = Matrix3 1 --> (matrix3 [1,0,0] [0,1,0] [0,0,1] [0,0,0])
file1 = createFile "C:\\test1.txt"
format "%\n" myVar to:file1
close file1
file2 = createFile "C:\\test2.txt"
print myVar to:file2
close file2
file3 = createFile "C:\\test3.txt"
print (myVar as string) to:file3
close file3
f = openFile "C:\\test3.txt" mode:"r+"
getVar = readLine f --> ""(matrix3 [1,0,0] [0,1,0] [0,0,1] [0,0,0])""
close f
If this is the case you can solve it using readValue() as Steve suggest, like this --
f = openFile "C:\\test3.txt" mode:"r+"
getVar = readValue ((readValue f) as stringStream)
close f
