Re: Can Embedded Python Blocks have callbacks?

This was my concern, and it does appear to behave that way.

Hi Jameson,

I think Embedded Python blocks can only have (automatically generated)
callbacks for __init__() arguments that are assigned as

self.foo = foo

in the body of __init__() (the example template that you get when you
create a new Embedded Python block shows how this works).

If you need more complex callbacks, I think you need to create a regular
Python block in an OOT module.

Best,
Daniel.
