Control a single bool from many indicators

[marty087]

Hi,

I want to be able to control the state of a single bool from many instances of the same indicator. Call it a master bool that all indicator instances can read. Is this possible?

To explain my logic, for example lets say I have 20 instances of the same indicator running at the the same time and each them may randomly fire off an audio alert at any time. I want a master switch for turning off audio alerts for all the indicator instances at once without having to mute my whole computer sound.

I could have the indicator read a text file to get the bool val and then just change the text in the txt file to control this as a master but I was hoping for a less cumbersome solution.

Thanks in advance for any help.

static int?

What I use it for:

Increment a static int upon creation, and decrement it upon object destruction.

Should give you total object count.

public static int obj_ct = 0;

so if you set it - it's good across all instances...

so turn on/off and everyone else should see the same variable.

Brilliant. For some reason I thought the Static var value once changed wouldn't transfer to the non-static vars represented in the properties section in the other instances... but it does perfectly. Too easy.

Thank you sledge.
