1 Introduction
This manual describes XVL Player / XVL Player Pro start-up options (properties) and configuration
files.
In this manual, XVL Player / XVL Player Pro is generally called “XVL Player.”
2 Start-up Options
Start-up options are parameters that determine the behavior of XVL Player when it is started.
2.1 Priority
The XVL Player start-up options can be specified using the following methods.
If the same option is specified using several methods, the highest-priority specification will be
adopted.
Priority Specification Description

method
High Property Specifies XVL Player properties directly via API or the Properties
specification dialog of the XVL Player View Control Object.
Server Specifies XVL Player properties using the OPT_DEF_FILE option or a
configuration server configuration file.
file For more information, refer to “5.3 Configuration File Format.”
Client Specifies XVL Player properties using <Install
configuration directory>\Env\Default.csv or a client configuration file.
file For more information, refer to “5.3 Configuration File Format.”
Application Specifies XVL Player properties with user-specified application
setting settings..
Low Application settings are saved in the registry.
Display settings follow the following rules:
Specification method Operations

Property specification XVL Player properties that are directly specified are always given
priority over display attributes in XVL files.
Server configuration file Only configuration file properties that are marked “mandatory” are
given priority over display attributes in XVL files.
XVL file display attributes have priority over configuration file properties
that are not marked “mandatory.”
Client configuration file Only configuration file properties that are marked “mandatory” are
given priority over display attributes in XVL files.
XVL file display attributes have priority over configuration file properties
that are not marked “mandatory.”
Application setting XVL file display attributes always have priority over application settings.

2.2 Usage
The following diagrams show the usage of start-up options for each container supported by XVL
Player. For details of the priority order of specification methods, refer to “2.1 Priority.”
Internet Explorer
MS Office
Visual Basic Application

3 XVL Player Insertion
The following sections describe the procedures for inserting XVL Player into each container.
3.1 HTML
In order to embed XVL Player inside HTML, use the OBJECT tag. Inside the OBJECT tag,
start-up options can be specified by using the PARAM tag. The following example shows the
use of the OBJECT tag with the PARAM tags:
 When only Internet Explorer is the target:
<object classid="CLSID:A7307292-9343-4de6-80F9-2DCEBAA7CF9C"
id="xvlplayer" width="100%" height="100%">
<param name="src" value="ToyTractor.xv2">
<param name="Options" value=" VIEW_ACCELERATE(TRUE)">
<param name="Mode" value="MODE_BEHAVIOR(0), MODE_VIEW_OP(0)">
<param name="Displays" value=" VIEW_DISPLAY_TYPE(3)">
</object>
Note:
If the OBJECT tag is written directly in HTML, Internet Explorer inactivates XVL Player, and
the user has to click on XVL Player to activate it. This is the general behavior of Internet
Explorer for ActiveX controls. For more details, please refer to the Microsoft website.
 When both Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox are targets:
<object type="application/x-xvlplayer" id="xvlplayer" width="100%" height="100%">

</object>
Note
If both XVL Player Ver. 8.6 or earlier and Ver. 12.0 or later are installed, the code above may
cause XVL files to be opened in XVL Player Ver. 8.6.
 When both Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox are targets and XVL Player Ver. 8.6 or earlier
is not installed:
6
<object classid="CLSID:A7307292-9343-4de6-80F9-2DCEBAA7CF9C"
id="xvlplayer" width="100%" height="100%">
<object type="application/x-xvlplayer" id="xvlplayer" width="100%" height="100%">
</object>
</object>
Note
With this specification method, both Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox are set as targets at
the same time, and XVL Player Ver. 8.6 or earlier is not launched. The item of the classid
attribute specified for the OBJECT tag gives the startup options for Internet Explorer. The
item of the type attribute specified for the OBJECT tag gives those for Mozilla Firefox.
If HTML files written with the specification method described above are opened using Internet
Explorer Ver. 6.0, XVL Player will not be launched.
The following start-up properties are available:
Property Description
src The target XVL file to be loaded.
It can be specified by absolute path, relative path, or URL.
Files XVL file imported at start-up
It can be specified by absolute path, relative path or URL. Multiple files can be
specified by separating them with “;”(semicolon). If loading the XVL file
specified by the src property fails, they will not be read.
Options General options
Mode Operation options
Displays Display options
The parameters specified in this property are prioritized over the display settings
embedded inside the XVL file.
OnHandler Specifies the JavaScript function to catch HANDLER_EVENT events that XVL
Player issues in Mozilla Firefox.
OnStatus Specifies the JavaScript function to catch STATUS_EVENT events that XVL
OnAnimation Specifies the JavaScript function to catch ANIMATION_EVENT events that XVL
OnAction Specifies the JavaScript function to catch ACTION_EVENT events that XVL
OnError Specifies the JavaScript function called when an error occurs upon API calling
provided by XVL Player SDK in Mozilla Firefox.
Note
For details of events issued by XVL Player, refer to the XVL Player SDK Reference Manual
7
and Tutorial. XVL Player SDK is sold separately.
In order to specify parameters for the Options, Mode, and Displays properties, a parameter name
must be followed by its value such as “Parameter(value).” Multiple parameters can be specified
separated by “,” (comma).
<param name="Displays" value =" VIEW_DISPLAY_TYPE(3), VIEW_SHOW_POINT(TRUE)">

(1) (2) (3) (4) (5)
(1) Property
(2), (4) Parameter ID
(3), (5) Values for parameter ID
In the above example, the initial display type (VIEW_DISPLAY_TYPE) and the vertex display
setting (VIEW_SHOW_POINT) of the loaded XVL file are ignored,. Hidden line display (3) is
chosen by the VIEW_DISPLAY_TYPE parameter, and the vertex display is set to “TRUE” in the
VIEW_SHOW_POINT parameter.
For details on parameter IDs for the Options, Mode, and Displays properties, refer to the “ID”
section in “6.2 Parameters.” The format of the values specified for parameter IDs are the same
for configuration files. For details, refer to the “Description” section in ”6.2 Parameters.”
The possible types of the parameter ID are “Logical value,” “Integer value,” “Real number value”
and “String value.”
Type of value Description

Logical value Specifies a logical value by TRUE or FALSE. This value is not case-sensitive.
(Logical)
Integer value Specifies an integer. To specify the value in hexadecimal, the first character
(Integer) must be ‘x’ or ‘X’. The RGB color information can be also specified by integers.
The 3 byte integers can express red, green, and blue colors from the upper byte.
Real number Specifies a real value.
value
(Real)
String value Specifies a string. A string in a cell must be specified in the CSV file format.
(String) For example, if a string includes a comma, the cell in the file must be enclosed by
double quotation marks. ’\’ is an escape character and is interpreted differently
according to the letter after ‘\’ as follows:
\\: As single letter ‘\’
\n: As Line feed character
\(: As single letter ‘(’
\): As single letter ‘)’
Strings starting with ‘\’ other than the above are interpreted as they are. Please
note that some parameters may not interpret the line feed characters correctly.

4 Properties
The OK and Apply buttons in the Properties dialog don’t change behaviors or display settings of
XVL Player when they are clicked; these buttons only change the parameter values for the
start-up of XVL Player.
The following table explains when the parameter values specified in the Properties dialog are
applied for each container.
Container When
Microsoft Office  Switches from the Design Mode to the User Mode
 Reads from saved document
Visual Basic  Starts application with the debug mode
 Starts built application
17
When checkboxes precede parameters, XVL Player behaves according to the following table.
Type Status Description

ON / OFF ON The parameter is enabled as a start-up option. Associated
parameters are also enabled.
OFF The parameter is disabled for a start-up option.
3 State ON The parameter is enabled as a start-up option.
OFF The parameter is disabled for a start-up option.

5 Configuration Files
5.1 Server Configuration File
Specify with Options property OPT_DEF_FILE. The following description is used for HTML
specification.
<param name = "Options " value = OPT_DEF_FILE(“Default.csv”)>
Specify server settings with “Setting file” in the figure in “4.1 General” for Microsoft Office
applications.
5.2 Client Configuration File
The client configuration file is created as “Default.csv” in the subdirectory “Env” of the installation
directory. For example, if the program (xvlplay3.ocx) is located in the “C:\Program
Files\Lattice\Player3” directory, the configuration file referenced will be “C:\Program
Files\Lattice\Player3\Env\Default.csv.”
5.3 Configuration File Format
The configuration file is in CSV file format. A single line corresponds to a single parameter, and
each line consists of the following cells.
Parameter ID, Change flag, Default value
The table below describes each cell. Note that lines that begin with ‘#’ are comment lines and are
ignored.
Cell Description
Parameter ID A string that uniquely identifies the parameter. For details of the specifiable
parameters, see “6.2 Parameters.”
Change flag Specifies how to handle the default parameter by using the logical sum of the
following values:
0 (or none): The setting stored in the registry at start-up has the first priority.
If there is no registry setting, the setting in the configuration file is applied.
1: Always uses the setting in the configuration file at start-up.
2: Locks the parameter change in GUI (prevents making changes).
4: Specified settings override XVL file display attributes.
28
Cell Description
Default value Default value for the parameter
The following shows the available values for the change flag and the effect of each flag.
Value Description
0 The setting stored in the registry at start-up has the first priority. If there is no registry
setting, the setting in the configuration file is applied. Parameter controls in the GUI are
enabled (changes are allowed).
1 Always uses the setting in the configuration file at start-up. Parameter controls in the
GUI are enabled (changes are allowed).

disabled (changes are prevented).
3 Always uses the setting in the configuration file at start-up. Parameter controls in the
GUI are disabled (changes are prevented).
setting, the setting in the configuration file is applied. Specified settings override XVL file
display attributes. Parameter controls in the GUI are enabled (changes are allowed).
5 Always uses the setting in the configuration file at start-up. Specified settings override
XVL file display attributes. Parameter controls in the GUI are enabled (changes are
allowed).
setting, the setting in the configuration file is applied. Specified settings override XVL file
display attributes. Parameter controls in the GUI are disabled (changes are prevented).
7 Always uses the setting in the configuration file at start-up. Specified settings override
XVL file display attributes. Parameter controls in the GUI are disabled (changes are
prevented).
Default value for the parameter is classified into the following depending on the type; logical value,
integer value, real number value, and string value.
Type of value Description

Logical value Specifies a logical value by TRUE or FALSE. This value is not
(Logical) case-sensitive.
Integer value Specifies an integer. If the first character is ‘x’ or ‘X’, the value is considered
(Integer) as hexadecimal. The RGB color information can be also specified by
integers. The 3-byte integers can express red, green, and blue colors from
the upper byte.
Real number value Specifies a real value.
(Real)
String value Specifies a string. A string in a cell must be specified in the CSV file format.
(String) For example, if a string includes a comma, the cell in the file must be
enclosed by double quotation marks. ’\’ is an escape character and is
interpreted differently according to the letter after ‘\’ as follows:
\\: As single letter ‘\’
\n: As Line feed character
\(: As single letter ‘(’
\): As single letter ‘)’
Strings starting with ‘\’ other than the above are interpreted as they are.
Please note that some parameters may not interpret the line feed
characters correctly.
29
Coding example:
#Sample,,
VIEW_BACKGROUND_COLOR,7,xFFFFFF
VIEW_DISPLAY_TYPE,0,2
The 1st line

Because the first cell begins with ‘#’, this line is considered as a comment line and is
ignored.
The 2nd line

Specifies the color whose RGB constituents are expressed by the hexadecimal values,
FF, FF, and FF (which indicate white), as the default value for
BACK_GROUND_COLOR. Because the change flag is “7,” this value will always be
applied at start-up. It is not possible to change parameters in GUI.
The 3rd line

Specifies 2 as the default value for VIEW_DISPLAY_TYPE. Because the change flag
is “0,” priority will be given to details stored in the registry for this value (default display
value). If the value is not stored in the registry, the value in the configuration file (default
display type = Shaded + Wireframe) is applied.
30
6 Description of Parameters
6.1 Notes for the Table
Inheriting a parameter:
If the “Inherit” column says unavailable (-), the parameter is set up only once at start-up and is
not inherited.
Locking a parameter:
The “Lock” column indicates whether a parameter is lockable or not. The parameters to be
locked are as follows:
1. A parameter that can be changed in GUI and affect overall behaviors of the application.
2. A parameter that can be changed in GUI and be applied to the same operations.
Mandatory parameters
The “Mandatory” column shows whether a parameter can be forced to read the value of the
configuration file by ignoring the setting embedded inside the XVL file. If parameters are set
mandatory, specified values in the configuration file are used when XVL Player reads an XVL
file while ignoring display settings embedded in the XVL file. The possible values for the
mandatory setting are “4,” “5,” “6” or “7.”
The set of following items does not operate properly if "forcible" flag is set to a different value.
Be sure to make a setting so that the flag is same in the set.
