  • 1.  Datalinq Keys forcing alpha value to change

    Posted 03-01-2016 15:17
    Hi - using Datalinq Keys for our elections, and were supplied new background graphics. In the past, I haven't used banners for names since DK was driving the output, but I am wondering if there's a way to script it so that if it does see a value, the banner's alpha value is 100, otherwise it stays at 0.

    What version of XPression are you running? We'll use Visual Logic if you are on a new enough version, but if you're running older software we'll need to write a script.

    Hi Garner!

    5.5 - should have Visual Logic on it.

    If you just want to do 100-0 alpha I would just use the visibilty property.
    Sounds like it's not the datalinq key that has to change the value, but the content of a text object that the datalinq key is changing.
    If that's the case, this is the visual logic you would need:
