I created a simple GeoGebra
worksheet with a circle and several "spokes" attached to the
middle. Using the Checkbox tool we can show/hide the circle and
the spokes. Here is the file: Tutorial-8-1.ggb. |
|
But what I'd really like is to make
the ability to show/hide the spokes dependent on whether or not the
circle is showing, like the one to the right. Here is the file: Tutorial-8-2.ggb. |
|
Here's the idea: once I've
created two checkboxes, I rename the boolean values tfWheel and tfSpokes (I prefix it with tf to
remind me that its
only values are true and false). In Object Properties, I select tfSpokes, and under the Advanced tab, in the "Condition to Show Object" area I enter tfWheel. Now, the tfSpokes checkbox only appears whenever tfWheel is true (that is, then the checkbox is checked). |
|
The spokes consist of 5 segments
and 5 points. Next I click the word "Segment" to select all the
segments, then under "Condition to Show Object" I type tfSpokes && tfWheel When I hit enter, the && gets replaced with the logical "and" symbol, as seen to the right. I similarly change the 5 points that are at the end of each spoke. More on logical operations here. |

Try the applet to the right. Here is the file: Tutorial-8-3.ggb. |
|
I created three text areas and
named them txtInstructions, txtWarm, and txtHot. To make txtWarm appear I enter Distance[ A, (6, 3) ] ≤ 1.5 in the "Condition to Show Object" box. To enter the less-than-or-equal sign, you can type Alt-<, or you can select it from the drop down box to the right of the text field. |

In this last example, I use a
slider to control when objects are shown. Here is the file: Tutorial-8-simson.ggb. |
