As the title says.

Is it possible to disable an item while another one is online?

-Fredrik

I think an explanation of your application might help. What are you trying to accomplish?

#XPression

I have two buttons that each triggers a page with GPI, and when one is triggered and go online I don´t want the other to go online at the same time. I am using this for a gameshow where the contestants have a buzzer.

I would have done this with a relay on the trigger mechanism that disables the other button , but have to look for other options right now.

#XPression

You need to use 2 layers for that dedicated to this mechanism.

When a GPI is triggered, it put your scene on layer 4 (in my example). If layer 5 is free, contestant is the first to buzz -> Scene move on layer 5; else, if layer is not free, scene don't go online.

Dim MyFB as xpOutPutFrameBuffer

Engine.GetOutputFramebuffer(0, MyFB)

Dim MyScene as xpscene

if MyFb.GetSceneOnLayer(5, MyScene) then

'A scene is already on layer 5

Self.SetOffline()

Else

MyFB.moveLayer(4,5)

end if

Okay, thanks!

I have't scripted a lot in XP. Where do I put this code? In the Keyboard/ GPI Mapping or the Scene Director?

#XPression

Oh sorry, I forget to tell you that...

On the scene that is setonline by your GPI Mapping, under "OnOnline".

#XPression

I might be doing something wrong, the script is not doing anyting.... I have set the GPI to take the specific id, under GPI Mapping. I copy and pase your script inside Script Events > OnOnline.

My two "buzz scenes" does not output on layer 5, only layer 4.

Check your PM

Now it's working! Thanks to Vincent :-)

I'm not doing the project like this, but I hope someday it is usefull for me.

Thanx...
