Hi does anyone know how to execute some data, we get from server, such as "2*x"?
For example: i need from it count equation: y = 2*x; but realize you need to use dynamic data: someVar = "2*x";
but this doesn't fuction: y = eval(someVar);

Hi Tom,
This unfortunately isn't possible. eval is only used for taking a string and evaluating it as a variable and returning the value of the variable. It isn't the same as the javascript eval function.
If what you are wanting to do is have something close to a function calling a name runs some bit of functionality, then the closest solution is going to be call(). Make a keyframe somewhere on the timeline give it a label, add your code there, then
call("myframeLabel")
(this doesn't advance the play head, it is essentially the same as splicing the code of the called frame into the current frame/button)
