Facility Control

i use this dashboard attached for a client to be able to moderate social media questions to go live to air. im stuck on how to script this cleaner to expand to multiple tabs with out having to add in every take number manually. is there a way to quickly write the code to add mabe a total of 8 tabs to work with.
i was also looking in to how you would have to build the grid to scale to different screen sizes. right not it only works on 1080 screen with out cutting any thing off

social DB.grid

Hi @dgreene93
Have you considered using arrays instead of individual parameters for reach of these? Then your tables would just be 3 parameters with the indices of the elements you wanted to add.

As for your clear task, a loop would be very helpful. This script would clear 20 frame buffers:

for (var i = 0; i < 20; i++)
{
   rosstalk.sendMessage(ogscript.getPrivateString('hosts', 'xpn.host'), parseInt(ogscript.getPrivateString('hosts', 'xpn.port')), 'CLFB ' + i);
}

If your frame buffers were not sequential, you could get away with listing them in an array:

var bufferList = [1, 12, 14, 5, 2, 30];
for (var i = 0; i < bufferList.length; i++)
{
   rosstalk.sendMessage(ogscript.getPrivateString('hosts', 'xpn.host'), parseInt(ogscript.getPrivateString('hosts', 'xpn.port')), 'CLFB ' + bufferList[i]);
}
