  • 1.  Xpression Timer Function Block linked to Scene Director

    Posted 09-24-2024 19:36

    I need help linking a countdown Timer to either a "PAUSE" event or a designated time on the Scene Director timeline.  So, the directors of the show can control when the countdown timer starts.  I've tried the VL below.....but it's not working. :( Any ideas?

    Hello! I was able to get this working with similar visual logic.

     I used a "Greater Than" block, set the base to 10, and placed a pause block at frame 10 on the scene director. Take online to ready it, the scene will wait in a paused state, take again to start the countdown. I have attached a copy of the scene for you to take a look at inside of XPression. File > Import > From Project/File.

    Let me know if this gives you any trouble! There is another solution using very simple scripting and a clock timer widget if this visual logic continues to give you a hard time.
