How to Edit the Callback Box in Scilab
Scilab’s mathematical programming application allows a variety of JavaScript inserts into a model. One is a callback box. This is a box that, when a user clicks on it, will input a previously saved value (via a separate box). Whatever is sitting in the Scilab memory bank will be displayed in the callback box. Editing a callback box is simple; you can change only the position and color, though -- everything else is standard.
