I had some code with a series of transformations and then a module call.
I wanted to change the module call depending on a boolean.

So I did

translate(...)
rotate(...)
etc(...)
if (boolean_test)
module_call(some_params);
else
module_call(some_others); // or perhaps a different_module_call()

Of course it didn't work. So I used '? :', there would be other ways too.

But then I thought, would that be so bad if it could work that way too?

What's the exact code that did not work? This looks ok
to me:

module test(t, b) {
translate(t)
if (b)
cube(8, center = true);
else
sphere(4);
}

test([-10, 0, 0], false);
test([10, 0, 0], true);

ciao,
Torsten.

Hmmm, my bad.

The lines with the blue circles were added (except with different clipAngles

I had to recreate it).

See the error, I wasn't thinking straight, turns out it was missing a
semi-colon....

I was in a hurry, and just changed to '? :' without proper diagnosis.

Sorry to bother.

Is it feasible/logical to change if/else
