RE: Parsing Data Via Scripting

Posted By Dalton Paul 12-22-2023 17:02
Found In Egroup: Graphics \ view thread
Upon further testing, I realized the longer my data (xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (yyyyyyy) (11-22, 3:33)) gets the more messed up it becomes. How would you adjust it if the text was something along the lines of: New Data Example: F. PlayerName 18 yard Touchdown, pass from S. PlayerName (T. PlayerName kick ...

Parsing Data Via Scripting

Hoping someone might be able to help me with a script I've been trying to write for a few days now and not having any luck. I am trying to parse some data and feed it into 4 different text objects to alleviate the operator having to manually type in the data. Data Example: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (yyyyyyy) ...

RE: Script for the Color tab of a Quad Object on the Sequence side

Found In Egroup: Graphics \ view thread
I don't think so. I don't have a material applied to my quad object right now and I am still able to select the color tab (when the scene is dragged into the sequence). But I am not able to pull the RGB values from the quad itself. I tried adding a material but the script just reads the base color ...

Was just messing around with some color changes and was curious if there is a way to pull these values through scripting. In the image attached you can see I have 6 published objects: 1. Text Object - Message 2. Quad Object - Background 3. Quad Object - Text_Color_Picker 4-6. Text Objects - RGB ...

Animating a Counter upon data change

Posted By Dalton Paul 12-06-2022 21:13
Found In Egroup: Graphics \ view thread
Curious how I can create this animation. We have a scoreboard and we want the score text to animate. Before the text changes we want the text (00) to animate up +10 on the Y-Axis, stop for 4-5 frames where it then changes the score by 1,2 or 3, then animates down -10 on the Y-axis. The hope is to ...

I'm not 100% sure, lets say 5760x1080. I don't know of the device yet either. More curious to see if its possible. ------------------------------ Dalton Paul Senior Graphics Producer ------------------------------

Different Sized Outputs

Posted By Dalton Paul 11-18-2022 16:28
Found In Egroup: Graphics \ view thread
Curious if anyone has any experience working with different sized outputs? (I have only worked with 1920x1080 in xPression) The hope would be to leave Framebuffer 1 & 2 at 1920x1080 and change output 3 to another dimension. I can create a new sized scene by right clicking in my 'Scene Manager' > New ...

Changing a Material's Diffuse Property via Scripting

I am pretty sure this is possible, but not too sure how to go about it. I have a Config Scene with 3 text objects (one for Hue, one for Saturation, one for luminance - or RGB). I want to have a process where my operator can input a value into each text field in hopes to change the color of a Material. ...

yeah, we signed up on the formula one website and subscribed but I couldn't seem to find any exact feed to pull from. However, I did find this website. https://documenter.getpostman.com/view/11586746/SztEa7bL#intro I played around with this API a little and got some nice results. There's a manual ...

Just curious if anyone knows of any Formula One data feeds that will work with xPression/Datalinq. Anything that has relative stats, live results/lap times, season numbers, etc. Hoping to get something together for the race in Miami this Sunday. ------------------------------ Dalton Paul Senior ...

This worked thank you!!! Solve: I made the Text and Quad Objects a child of the Layer Object. (Text on Top). Then Made the Gradient as a Material and set the Blend Mode to Multiply. Then using visual Logic, linked the Text Bounding box to the width of the Quad so the quad only stays the same width ...

Found In Egroup: Graphics \ view thread
Curious if anyone can help me with these two questions: Is there a way to do a text gradient from left to right that does NOT apply on a by character basis. Is there a way to make a Quad an 'alpha mask' of a text object (how its done in AE) I have attached a reference image ('COMING UP') as well ...
