I made small Manipulate to test it in the Wolfram Cloud. Uploaded the notebook. I noticed the buttons do not respond at all. Only the sliders do. On the PC, inside Mathematica 9.01 (windows), the buttons do respond of course.
I then Selected the Manipulate cell, did "share cell", then selected generate Cloud CDF, then generate URL. When now I also try the manipulate in the URL given, the sliders all work, but not the buttons.
Here is the URL generated URL
Is there a list somewhere that shows which Mathematica functions and commands are not supported in the Cloud?
Update: I just found this, which says that Dynamic
is only supported in Wolfram desktop systems
.
Does this mean that Dynamic
it is not supported in the Wolfram Programming Cloud?. Is the Cloud a Wolfram desktop system
? Or is it the mathematica Online which is a desktop system? But on this page http://www.wolfram.com/desktop/ it shows the Cloud as a Desktop
system. I know that Mathematica itself is a desktop system of course. But now I am little confused if the Cloud is supposed to be Desktop system
or not. If it is, then which product is not a Wolfram desktop
system?
Examples that do not run in the W-Cloud: (using firefox 30.0 on windows 7)
LocatorPane
LocatorPane[{1, 1}/2, Graphics[{Gray, Disk[]}]]
Button
Manipulate[
x,
Button["Click Here", x = RandomReal[1]]
]
Manipulator
Manipulate[
x,
Row[{Manipulator[Dynamic[x, {x = #} &], {0, 1, .1}]}]
]
TogglerBar (clicking again do not toggle it off. i.e. it works one way only. Can toggle in, but not off)
Clear[x]
{TogglerBar[Dynamic[x], Range[5]], Dynamic[x]}
RadioButtonBar (no effect on clicking )
Clear[x]
{RadioButtonBar[Dynamic[x], Range[5]], Dynamic[x]}
PopuMenu (selecting new item changes x but not the label shown in the menu, Also missing menu arrow)
x = a;
{PopupMenu[Dynamic[x], {a, b, c, d}], Dynamic[x]}
ButtonBar (letters show up and clicking on the letter does work. but the actual buttons are missing on the screen)
ButtonBar[{"a" :> Print[1], "b" :> Print[2], "c" :> Print[3]}]
PopupView (selecting different item do not change item shown. Also missing arrow in the view)
ClearAll["Global`*"];
PopupView[{a, b, x + y, z}]
MenuView. (clicking on the item changes the plot as expected, but label do not update and also missing arrow on menu)
MenuView[Table[Plot[Sin[n x], {x, 0, 10}], {n, 5}]]
Dynamics based on Animator
(such as ListAnimate[]
and others, are not supported. Error is
Animate::cloudf: Animator is not currently supported in the Wolfram Cloud
Referesh[]
does not update time string. Initial time displayed but not updated any more.
Dynamic[Refresh[DateString[], UpdateInterval -> 1]]
Second argument of Dynamic
not evaluated. Here the y
dynamic is not updated on the screen, only the x
dynamic is
Clear[x, y];
Dynamic[x]
Dynamic[y]
Slider[Dynamic[x, {x = #; y = RandomReal[]} &]]
LocalizeVariables->False
does not work. Here x
should be updated outside Manipulate
but it does not in the Cloud
{Manipulate[x, {x, 0, 1}, LocalizeVariables -> False], Dynamic[x]}
CurrentValue
produces $Failed
Dynamic[CurrentValue["MouseOver"]]
