Hey all,

If I have a render view, is it possible to edit the text within a render view material that is being used in another scene? Visual Logic, Scripting possible here?

Datalinq would be the easiest way. Just Datalinq the text in your renderview scene.

@garner I see where you're going but are the keys for that render view going to be available in the new scene I am taking those render views into?

Since the renderview scene is hardcoded into the material; you can access it via scripting. Just do a GetSceneByName("SceneName", scene, false) to get the pointer to the scene then you can change any text/data in it that you want..

Cool! And that's just a script I'll have to put on a single event in the Scene Director, no?
#XPression

You'd probably be putting it in an OnSetText of a text object. So when an invisible text object in your online scene was was updated it would write to a text object in the renderview.

@garner, gotcha. The only thing I'm worried about is that I have over 14 text objects I would need to do this to I'm assuming. If you have some time could you walk me through it?
#XPression

Yes. You'd have the same script in all 14 text objects. The only difference would be that each text object connects to a different text object in the renderview scene. XPression will easily handle this.

@garner I'm happy to hear it will be easily handled. However I'm not sure how to implement it. Could someone supervise walking through it?

Here's a sample project where you can edit a text object in a renderview from the invisible published text in the primary scene.
