Graphics

Hey hey,

I was wondering if anyone here knows what it would take to create a scoreboard where the standings move depending on what the data changed to. So for example I have a excel sheet with points assinged to different teams, the table sorts itself automatically depending on what team has the most points. I would like the graphics to represent that but rather have the new order just pop into existence I'd like for the teams to actually move/animate into the new position. So basically imagine the Formula1 sidebar with the positions of the cars on the track and one of the drivers gets overtaken. The new order doesn't just plopp in, but the positions actually swap. F1 Excample when Kvyat goes from 12th place to 2nd

Also handy to know that while I'm doing rather ok with VL, I have very little experience with VB.

It requires scripting as you need to update the keyframe values with the items current position and tell it where its new position needs to be and then move it. accordingly. 

At the same time you must move all other items to their new respective positions. 

So every time the data changes you must re-evaluate every position, it's quite a complex graphic.

I would need to write it first as I don't seem to have any saved examples, I am working on a project with a pressing deadline at the moment.

I will try to write something when I am done with project unless someone beats me to it.

I expected it to be complicated so no surprises there. Thank you for the answer anyways.

group folder has the data for the first line i.e first name last name text if they are two separate objects...etc

and the points is just the text. 

and of course the y position for all the lines.

makes sense?

good luck

The OG poster asked for it to be animated between positions, this will just jump positions.

If you check this thread;

https://rossvideo.community/discussion/racing-results-leaderboard-animations#bmd7a974c3-eb80-40c3-8481-75e853eeb6e0

And download Roman's project testt.xpp it has what you need just connect the "Pos_0/1/2/3" etc to your data for each position and you'll see it will work when you change the data. 

If you don't have data to test with you can use widgets.

Downloaded the file, but somehow I can't compile any of the scripts. Could this be because I'm just on a designer licence right now?
