I couldn't find the block for this unfortunatly. I should also mention that I'm on version 10.5 so I guess this feature is not available to me? If so is there a way around this or am I just out of luck on this one? ------------------------------ Best wishes, Johannes ------------------------------

Hey guys "quick" question, I would like Xpression to select one videoloop out of a selection of three each time the scene is played out. I have a base lower third with a small video next to it where the lower third stays the same but I want Xpression to randomly choose which video to use for this instance. ...

NDI framebuffer only adds output

Hello there, so I am currently looking to get a website with transparency into xpression. For that I setup an OBS scene with an NDI filter that only outputs that one browser source. When I'm trying to add a NDI framebuffer in Xpression I can set the output name and input name, but the live source ...

So you'd recommend writing a small program with four buttons which change one of the 4 blocks to "selected" and then another 4 buttons which set the true block? I'm very unfamiliar with coding so I was hoping for there to be a onsettext script that updates the text whenever its changed in the template ...

So I am looking to make something like a "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?" ABCD-question with a selected answer and a reveal of the correct answer with visual logic. For that I made two textfields with the data 1-4 which turn quads on or off. Now once the question is on air I'd like to type the numbers ...

On another note just because I tried this out now. Do you know of any way to keep it centered vertically even while using autosqueeze height&width? Since when using that it will still be off center once the text starts to squeeze. ------------------------------ Best wishes, Johannes -------------- ...

Maybe I set something up the wrong way I'd have to have another look but I remember that I had an issue with it. Regardless, as long as it's not a more known issue since it's a quite common setup it was probably an "Error Code 40". ------------------------------ Best wishes, Johannes ------------- ...

Is this known to not work on older versions of xpression? Since I think I remember trying this but when adding lines or removing lines it didn't keep centering as the verticall centerpoint of a textobject is not the mathematical centerpoint but a tad lower. ------------------------------ Best wishes, ...

But if I had a dyanmic material with a material path that looks something like this: "allymonsterslaying_@COUNTER_LEFT1@_Image". Shouldn't the result of this be "allymonsterslaying_0_Image"/, "allymonsterslaying_1_Image, (...) and as such resolve to a file path within the material manager or am I overseeing ...

Hi guys, I'm trying to have a quad object take the texture of a icon, depending on what number a widget is set to. So basically I have 4 Icons which are named Icon1_IMAGE, Icon2_IMAGE, Icon3_IMAGE and Icon4_IMAGE. I wanted to use dynamic materials linked to a widget so that it can be changed by just ...

Hey Community, I wanted to ask if anybody here has experience with the Blackmagic Decklink 8k cards in combination with XPression. Apperantly they used to be incompatible but that info is now a few years old and since I'm looking at the requirements for 4k I wanted to ask before buying anything. ...

Alright, will do when I get the time to do so. Thank you in the meantime for the help, maybe our IT department can already try some things with the Microsoft ACE drivers. Otherwise I'll be in touch with the Ross support. ------------------------------ Best wishes, Johannes ------------------ ...

The file is located on the desktop of the same machine xpression is running on. I think the most cells I had to read at the same time were 240-270 cells in one graphic. Also I didn't want to use dynamic materials because I had some bad experiences with the dynamic materials not updating when the datalinq ...

Unfortunatly I'm not that deep into scripting yet so I can't judge what exactly that script does, but I also think I did not explain my problem properly. Let's for example say I have an excel sheet in which cell1 contains a teamname and cell2 contains a talent name. If I now go ahead and change ...

I don't think I can fully follow what you're suggesting. Also I had this happen when I swapped the content of the textfield to another text. So the text disappears for a splitsecond and then the new text popps up. The text plopping in and out of existance also happens to textfields that are not touched, ...
