JavaScript Code

				
					<canvas id="canvas3d"></canvas>
 <script type="module">
        import { Application } from 'https://unpkg.com/@splinetool/runtime@1.0.54/build/runtime.js';

        const canvas = document.getElementById('canvas3d');
        const spline = new Application(canvas);

        spline.load('scene.splinecode')
            .then(() => {
                const button1 = document.getElementById('button1');
                button1.addEventListener('click', () => {
                   spline.setVariables({ cream: 100, white: 0, black: 0, blue: 0, red: 0 });
                });

                const button2 = document.getElementById('button2');
                button2.addEventListener('click', () => {
                   spline.setVariables({ cream: 0, white: 100, black: 0, blue: 0, red: 0 });
                });

                const button3 = document.getElementById('button3');
                button3.addEventListener('click', () => {
                   spline.setVariables({ cream: 0, white: 0, black: 100, blue: 0, red: 0 });
                });

                const button4 = document.getElementById('button4');
                button4.addEventListener('click', () => {
                    spline.setVariables({ cream: 0, white: 0, black: 0, blue: 100, red: 0 });
                });
                
                const button5 = document.getElementById('button5');
                button5.addEventListener('click', () => {
                   spline.setVariables({ cream: 0, white: 0, black: 0, blue: 0, red: 100 });
                });
            });
    </script>
