[x3d-public] Turning on and off simultaneous animations individually

[John Carlson]

Andreas, "startTime" is an accessType outputOnly field, so why do I need to
provide a value attribute in fieldValue?  I'm kind of confused.  I'm
probably missing something in the spec.

Thanks for any clarification.

I have finally enabled schematron on the project, but I'm finding it hard
to understand the messages, and modifications that I make, while removing
the immediate problems, seem to move the problems elsewhere.

Explaining why I need a "startTime" fieldValue value is my main lack of
understanding, but perhaps I need a whole review of accessType.

Castle Model Converter reports:

castle-model-converter: Warning: X3D: X3D XML: <fieldValue> element
references unknown field name "enabled"
castle-model-converter: Warning: X3D: X3D XML: <fieldValue> element
references unknown field name "startTime"
castle-model-converter: Warning: X3D: X3D XML: <fieldValue> element
references unknown field name "stopTime"

I will try providing a field value in the ProtoInterface

If I "cleanup" enabled, startTime and stopTime, I get:

castle-model-converter: Warning: VRML/X3D: Within prototype "MenuItem",
event "inputTrue" references (by "IS" clause) non-existing event "enabled"
castle-model-converter: Warning: VRML/X3D: Within prototype "MenuItem",
event "triggerTime" references (by "IS" clause) non-existing event
"startTime"
castle-model-converter: Warning: VRML/X3D: Within prototype "MenuItem",
event "triggerTime" references (by "IS" clause) non-existing event
"stopTime"

I guess what I conclude at this point is, startTime and stopTime are bad
DEF names, but what about enabled as a field?  The dominoes are falling.

About your two scenarios in the other message, perhaps this is revealing.

See attached attempt to fix original issue, which resulted in the above.
