How do I Multiple Variables to another layout

Hello all.

Been trying to figure this one out without success.

I have a couple planets on layout1, they have all multiple values set such as planetname, planetsize, planetpopulation etc. I have a planet information menu on layout5. Now, if mouse is over planet Earth I would like the planet info menu from layout5 to pop up, appending onto the texts on the menu such as Planet Name : planetname of mouse over etc, etc.

Or do you have to make multiple menu's unless you keep the menu in the same layout?

Try Global Variable.

Ya but was thinking if there was a way to send local variables to another layout such as C++ you can send local varibles to other functions etc.

Thank you for the reply XpMonster.

Did you tried "Include event sheet" then? Might help.

You could use shared global variables using a dedicated event sheet for that, and include it in both layout 1 and 5 event sheet. Or use a global Dictionnary Object (they come set to global by default).

Will try the dictionary thx for info all and have a nice weekend
