Static Readonly LONG_Value of alpha for "long trails" effect.
Static Readonly SHORT_Value of alpha for "short trails" effect.
Static makeMakes a DisplayAxes which shows the simRect of a SimView, adding it to the SimView; and makes a GenericObserver which resizes the axes whenever the SimView's simRect changes (for example because of pan-zoom controls).
the SimView to add axes to
Optional bottomLeft_opt: booleantrue means to align axes at bottom left. We usually want this for the simulation view. For graphs we want the default which puts the axes thru the origin whenever possible.
the axes that were created
Static makeMakes pop-up menu of choices for background color plus options for "trails" which turns on the global alpha transparency feature in LabCanvas. See LabCanvas.setAlpha and LabCanvas.setBackground.
the LabCanvas to provide choices for
Static makeCreates a EasyScriptParser with additional commands 'reset' and 'step' for controlling the SimRunner

VarsList of a simulation. These must also be included in subjects.

Static makeMakes controls for pan and zoom of a SimView. Use gray icons so that they are visible with black background or white background.
the SimView under control
whether the controls should appear over the parent element,
default is true
Optional resetFunc: (() => void)optional function to execute when click on center button, it should reset the SimView to the original default location and scale; if undefined, then uses current SimView rectangle
the div containing the pan-zoom controls.
Static makeMake rewind, pause/play, and step controls for SimRunner. Uses icons from the
images directory with names rewind.png, forward.png, pause.png, next.png.
the SimRunner to make controls for
Optional opt_overlay: booleanwhether the controls should appear over the parent_div, default is false.
a GroupControl containing all the controls that were made
Static makeMakes a ParameterBoolean named SHOW_CLOCK for a DisplayClock. The
ParameterBoolean causes the DisplayClock to be added to the targetView.
Makes a GenericObserver which observes the targetView and broadcasts the ParameterBoolean whenever the DisplayClock is added or removed from the targetView.

Static makeMakes a ParameterBoolean named SHOW_ENERGY for an EnergyBarGraph. The
ParameterBoolean causes the EnergyBarGraph to be added to the targetView.
Sets size of EnergyBarGraph based on the targetView size.
Makes a GenericObserver which observes the targetView and broadcasts the ParameterBoolean whenever the EnergyBarGraph is added or removed from the targetView.

Optional opt_name: stringname of parameter (optional)
Optional opt_i18n_name: stringlocalized name of parameter (optional)

Static makeMakes a ParameterBoolean named PAN_ZOOM which shows or hides the pan-zoom
controls.
the div containing the pan-zoom controls

the ParmeterBoolean named PAN_ZOOM
Static makeURLScriptCreates a 'share' button that allows the user to copy the URL for the current page including the script that will set all of the available Parameters. Presents the user with a prompt showing a text box with the URL + script.
Generated using TypeDoc
A collection of static functions for making controls, used in several applications. CommonControls is a 'static' class, meaning it is not instantiated, instead it only a convenient place to keep several common functions for constructing an application.
