How to use roster for multiple dropdowns without copying.

Posted By David Levy 04-16-2025 15:26
Found In Egroup: Facility Control \ view thread
Hello, I'd like to make separate dropdowns for touchdowns, and penalties, etc... where the user can select from the entire roster. I know I could copy from the rosters and make constraints for all the different dropdowns, but that seems like a lot of copying. I've been successful using Global constraints, ...

Thanks Richard! Can this also be done with Global Constraints? Are those also scriptable? here's an example from the docs, can I script this type of constraint? 480i-59.94 576i-50 1080i-29.97 1080i-25 720p-59.94 720p-50 1080p-59.94 1080p-50 ------------ ...

The documentation for Dashboard says: "Parameter References Sub-params within a structure may also be defined as references to other parameters. These behave much like C++ or Java variable references. A parameter reference inherits the referenced parameter's type, attributes and constraints. " ...

Can I use the meta tag to organize params?

Found In Egroup: Facility Control \ view thread
Is there a way to use the tag to organize tags within the group? The docs for the tag seem to hint this would work, but when I try it, any tags within the tag disappear. The docs for the "Meta" tag say: meta This is a convenient parent tag for all non-UI tags. The meta tag does not ...

How far down can subparams go? I'd love it if I could have a roster struct array within a team struct. Is that possible? ------------------------------ David Levy Lead Real Time Graphics Developer ESPN Charlotte United States ------------------------------

Is there any gotchas for datalinq for this? I feel like if I use params.resetAllValues, it would wipe out the array and then what happens in datalinq? ------------------------------ David Levy Lead Real Time Graphics Developer ESPN Charlotte United States ------------------------------

For further info, If I change these individual structs to a struct array, the problem goes away. Will this be a problem for datalinq? I initially went with individual structs because they would always be present when I need to clear the info. How does datalinq handle dynamic params? ...

Ok, I did some more research. I can make this consistently when I try to params.setValue in one of those Structs. However, when I first wrote this, I didn't have any code that wrote to those structs at the time, I was just editing view params at that time. ------------------------------ David ...

I tried params.getAllValues(), but it returns a Java object and I had to resort to using Java to actually get the data from the array. However, you've warned me that Java code isn't really supported, so I guess I will stick to getValue. Is there a plan to make getAllValues return something I can manipulate ...
