  • 1.  scripting reordering masked shapes

    Posted 10-30-2024 14:49

    Hi, I am looking for ideas on how to reorder groups via script that can be triggered in sequencer

    the groups contain masks and I want to be able to set the order of the groups so that I can control which group renders over which via script

    The MoveTo method reorders the hierarchy but it doesn't live update

    Any other ideas?

    Thanks, R

    Hi, Ronen.

    MoveTo works as usual.

    Have a question: what kind of engine you use for pushing the script to run?

    Hi Roman, 

    I need to change the order while the scene is on-air .. I can't change to another scene to refresh 

    Ideally using a script event in a scene director

    Attached is a simple test scene that shows the problem I am having with MoveTo

    updated test scene - this version indeed shows that MoveTo works but not while the scene is on-air

    I've changed the scripts.

    And don't use 'engine.GetSceneByName("SORT_SCENE2", mscene, false)' in this case, only 'scene'. 

    Part Yor script must be look like

    scene.GetObjectByName("L_TOP", top)
scene.GetObjectByName("L_BLUE", blue)
scene.GetObjectByName("L_PINK", pink)
scene.GetObjectByName("GREEN", green)
