RE: Pause video in xpression

There's several ways to to this. Add the video to the scene director with a pause event, you can choose whether the video then plays out or reverses direction. You can play the video and add an event object to the scene director to continuously loop over the video. Animate it out with another ...

Ah interesting, I wasn't aware it was working like a video material (you can't play it like one through scripts). Well met. ------------------------------ Tim Lundberg ESL FACEIT GROUP GmbH Cologne, Germany ------------------------------

Render views to my knowledge only present the frame that the scene director cursor is set to in layout mode. You can put the second scene on an output and watch the animation play if you play the timeline in scene 1 in the layout editor. Putting on both in the sequencer doesn't work either, the ...

Using/setting xpEngine as a global reference in Global Script Methods Editor

Found In Egroup: Graphics \ view thread
I'd like to declare and set a global xpEngine object to use in my global scripts file. I don't want to instantiate a new engine, just grab the reference for it so I don't have to pass the `Engine` ref as a parameter to nearly every function. The closest I've gotten is to call a "SetPublic" function ...

"If you want to trigger a full rebuild, you can hit "F5" at any time and that should clear-out any remaining processed code." I'm using external files for my functions and import them as API's so I'm well aware that I need to refresh after making changes. As I said I noticed that after deleting ...

Yes there are six 1080p images being loaded in total (I omitted the 6th one in the code I shared). The reason for me loading the full format is so that I can preview to check that the assets are actually there with the proper file name (and there's hundreds of them). Is it possible however that ...

I have a new issue related to this one. I have a function that contains the following loop: var path = ogscript.getPanelRelativeURL("../Assets/Images/PLAYERPHOTO/" + team + "/"); var player; for(var i = 1; i <= 5; i++) ( player = GetTextValue("matchup1-player-"+side+i); photopath ...

RE: Avoid declaring hundreds of individual parameters for a system with a consistent structure

Hey, So my problem is that I would like to avoid declaring hundreds of params manually, even if I can do so by grouping them by name and menu directly in the .grid file. What if I need to add another parameter in the future etc? What I had hoped was possible was that I could do something like ...

Hello, I have a slight issue with the numbers of parameters I would like to implement. I have 4 brackets with 7 matches each in dashboard where you set the team by dropdown. Using an external XML data source, I then need to populate 5 parameters for each team, granting me the joys of declaring and ...

I'm reading the ogscript reference and it says the following: asyncExec Executes a function outside of the UI current thread. This is especially useful for operations that take time to complete. You can use asyncExec to run such operations while continuing to execute the rest of your tasks. ...

I see now that using the jsonport as the default and only data source behaves differently from setting up multiple devices. That means that the original solution was exactly what I was looking for! Thanks /Tim #DashBoard

I'm sorry but I think there's been a misunderstanding. I made a mock-up of the scenario I'm talking about. In this situation "Host.grid" would be on a completely separate machine from "Edit.grid" and they would communicate over network. The way I've solved this issue previously is by ...

Hello James, Yes this helps a bit with one problem I was working on, but there is still one major issue I'm dealing with. With the example you provided I was able to make two grid files, host and editor, where the host can edit the param value and editor can see that data update. However I ...

I set up an External XML Data Source Panel and used as my Data Source for multiple panels. This updates nicely and keeps me organised when working with a single instance of Dashboard hosting several grid files. However when two instances of Dashboard run the same grid files they don't automatically ...
