Facility Control

I have built a table based on a tutorial by Ben Gatien on structured parameters

I'm using the playlist to drive sources to monitor arrays and split effects on our Carbonite Black.

This task adds a new item to the bottom of the playlist.

<task tasktype="ogscript">var newrecall = {
  name: params.getValue("store_name",0),
  Layout: params.getValue("Layout",0),
  Abus: params.getValue("Abus",0),
  Bbus: params.getValue("Bbus",0),
  Key1: params.getValue("Key1",0),
  Key2: params.getValue("Key2",0),
  Key3: params.getValue("Key3",0),
  Key4: params.getValue("Key4",0),
};

var count = params.getElementCount("recalls");
var p = params.getParam("recalls",0);
p.setValueAt(count, newrecall);</task>

For late changes, my directors are asking about adding a new item in a particular place.

I'm thinking that the "add new item" combined with elements of the "move up" function might get me close, but I am afraid it might also break every item below the insert point.

Move Up:

<task tasktype="ogscript">var newarray = new Array();
var index = params.getValue("selection",0);
if (index&gt;0) {

  // Recreate the array of values, with a new order.
  var count = params.getElementCount("recalls");
  for (var i=0; i &lt; count; i++) {
    if (i == index-1) {   
      newarray.push(params.getValue("recalls",index));
      continue;
    }
    if (i == index) {   
      newarray.push(params.getValue("recalls",index-1));
      continue;
    }
    newarray.push(params.getValue("recalls",i));
   
  }

  params.setAllValues("recalls", newarray);
  params.setValue("selection",0,index-1);
}</task>

Does anybody have any ideas?

Can I do this without everything crumbling down around my ears?

Thanks,
James.

It occurs to me that since I also have wanted to duplicate an existing row in the table, maybe I could use a duplicate function to accomplish both goals.

I would have the selection that could determine where to add the new recall..with selection or index+1.

I do not know Javascript or ogScript, so I am just stabbing in the dark here.

I did try to make the add items and in one attempt, deleted the whole table---just like I feared, it all came crashing down.

Is this possible?

Thanks,
James.

Hello James,

sorry for the late reply.  Can you attache a copy of your current panel so I can have a look?

Best regards,

Hey Marc-André,

I've replied directly to you with a link to the file.

Thanks,

James.

Hello James,

thanks for the link, having your panel was really useful.

  I was able to get you an 'insert below' function working here is the code:

var newrecall = {
  name: params.getValue("store_name",0),
  Layout: params.getValue("Layout",0),
  Abus: params.getValue("Abus",0),
  Bbus: params.getValue("Bbus",0),
  Key1: params.getValue("Key1",0),
  Key2: params.getValue("Key2",0),
  Key3: params.getValue("Key3",0),
  Key4: params.getValue("Key4",0),
};

var allValuesArray = params.getAllValues("recalls");
var selectedRowIndex = params.getValue('selection', 0);

// Insertion is below the selected row
var insertionIndex = selectedRowIndex + 1;

// Array.slice includes first index, excludes last index.
var firstElementsArray = allValuesArray.slice(0, insertionIndex);
var lastElementsArray = allValuesArray.slice(insertionIndex);

// Add the new element to the list and concatenate them
firstElementsArray.push(newrecall);
var resultingArray = firstElementsArray.concat(lastElementsArray);

// Update the values of the table
params.setAllValues("recalls", resultingArray);

// Set the selected row as the one which was just inserted
params.setValue('selection', 0, insertionIndex);

The only drawback is that you cannot insert an element as the first one in the list, but with this example I think you can easily figure it out if you need to.
