Thanks for the quick response Brian. Unfortunately, I'm running version 5.7 which doesn't have the trigger function in the scene director. Is there a way through scripting? #XPression

HI Jason, Thanks for responding. It's an interesting suggestion. I've never ran multiple scene directors. How would I go about doing that? #XPression

I have a follow up question. I need video to start and loop at a given time in the scene director and I have a few pauses that stops the video. My question is very similar to Daniel's original one: Would it be possible to have a video material ignore the pauses and continue to loop while maintaining ...

Hi Steve, Thanks for following up. To answer your question, I had to work around it. Fortunately for me, the text was coming from a data feed. On the data server side, I had to break up the text block into individual lines, taking in the fact that once the text block exceeded a certain amount ...

Thanks everyone for your help, I ended up using the following script on the onsettext to only display two decimal points: text = Convert.ToDouble("0"³ + text).ToString("0.00"³) hooray! #XPression

Hi Brian, FormatFloat sounds like the perfect solution. I'm looking in the Visual Logic Function Blocks and can't find the FormatFloat block. Am I looking in the right spot? I may have a version that doesn't have it (Developer v5.7 3086), and if so, where can I get a newer version? Richard ...

Thanks Guys for the responses so far. Tobias, yes that's exactly what I'm trying to do. Steve, I tried the scripting, but still haven't figured anything out. Still working on a solution. I'll let you all know if I make any head way. #XPression

Hi Everyone, I have a question about auto adjusting text in a given area and I hope there's a simple solution out there for me. I have text that I want to display over a quad. There's enough room for three lines of text. The text will vary in length so I want the ability to auto-squeeze ...

Is there a way to justify text around the 3rd last character? I have a bunch of data which have a decimal in them. They are being displayed on chart. These numbers are stacked on top of each other. I would like all the decimal points to line up with each other. All the data have been rounded to two decimal ...

Hi again, It looks like the drifting is happening because of the Event Marker trigger varies. I notice this when adjusting the scene group's duration. Is there anyway to tighten Event Marker's trigger? #XPression

Hi Brian, Thanks for the quick response. This really helps. However, I ran into another problem. I placed the event marker into the scene and got the roll to pause in the right spot by adjusting the scenes (children of the scene group) dimensions, however the roll seems to drift for a few cycles ...

Hi, First time Xpressions user here, so please bear with me. I'm creating a scene group that has text to behave in a precise way. A group of text needs to roll down and stop at a particular spot, then pause a few frames. From there the text group proceeds to another spot, pauses then goes ...
