On dashboard, can you create buttons that will play different scene directors within a scene? Or is it better to do separate scenes for them? Thanks, I hope someone can help?

Not directly, but you can add a GPI within Xpression to play the scene director, and then trigger that GPI within DashBoard.

There is now a functions list in the Keyboard/GPI mapping section, and Scene Director trigger is not in that list. How do I add a function that's not in the list? I couldn't find anything obvious. I was also looking for a clock stop/start/reset function and that's not in the list either.

You can write a script to do just about anything you need.

To play a scene director, you might use something like this:

dim scene as xpScene

dim director as xpSceneDirector

engine.sequencer.getSceneByID(123, scene)

scene.getSceneDirectorByName("my scene director", director)

director.play

To start a clock widget, maybe something like this:

dim clock as xpClockTimerWidget

engine.getWidgetByName("my widget", clock)

clock.start

Take a look at the Xpression SDK documentation inside the Help folder for all the fun things you can do.
