  • 1.  Item Name Derived from Text Field

    Posted 05-21-2015 16:00
    I'm hope this comes across without too much confusion. I'm building player rosters within my Xpression project, and would like to ensure that the "Name" column for each player lower third I add to my sequence is populated by the text element within that instance of the graphic that lists the player name. Is there a method for achieving this in my project setup? Thanks for you help!

    You would have to type them in manually.. The Content column however should show you the player name.

    Thanks Brian,

    Because I'm using Datalinq to populate my roster graphics, the content column is populated by the file path location for my team logos. Do you know if there is a method for determining what info appears in the content column?

    The content field just shows you the values in the Published Template Fields in the order they are defined.

    If you also have field that is datalinqed to the player name, you can just move that to be ahead of the team logo so the name would appear before the logo path.. The order of the published fields can be modified in the Template Links tab in the scene Layout editor.
