XPression API Access to Take Item Colors in Sequencer for Scripting a Macro

  • 1.  XPression API Access to Take Item Colors in Sequencer for Scripting a Macro

    Does the API offer any access to a take item's color property? I'd like to build a macro to automate the process. Our live news environment involves a lot of rundowns monitoring on and off every hour, and our operators are constantly color coding by hand. Not to mention, if a rundown is monitored off and back on for any reason, all color coding is lost.

    For clarification, I'm not referring to the template data fields or an object/material within a take item, rather the actual take item's color in the sequencer.

    Hi Josh.  I think the answer to this is no. - I could jump into my reasons why I think it is no, but to the best of my knowledge, no.
