RE: Scaling up "Picture-in-picture" live source to be fullscreen, then handing off template to live source?

Thanks Kenneth, That sounds great. I was thinking of having to do a transition logic solution, but this seems like it would work for the template and would be more my speed. I'll try it out. Appreciate the response. #XPression

Scaling up "Picture-in-picture" live source to be fullscreen, then handing off template to live source?

Hello, I'm trying to replicate a template that was made for us where a "picture-in-picture" OTS that plays live video scales up so that the OTS live video becomes fullscreen. The scaling animation part seems simple enough, but I'm wondering if anyone can give me some insight into the best way to ...

This works for me. It seems my problem was that I was using 'Self.Text' instead of just 'Text.' Many thanks, Antoine. #XPression

Hello good people, I'm running into a problem because it seems the "OnSetText" script is run immediately before the object's text property actually changes. As a reult, you can't grab the new string to use within the script. I built a scene to test this.. I made Text-A driven by a time counter ...

I'm making a crawling ticker that's supposed to raise up as an in animation then lower itself to hide as an out animation. There is a parent scene in a scene group with a still background, then there's a child scene with the text that crawls along. I'm able to get both "IN" scene directors (one ...

Hello, I'm making a scrolling ticker with a scene group(in the Scene Manager) using the Roll/Crawl effect. The parent scene has the background and the child scene has the text that scrolls across. At the end of the scrolling text, I thought I'd put an Event Object to trigger a Scene Director ...

Finally got around to trying this out.. Seems this method is only able to go from top to bottom or bottom to top. Is there a way for it to scroll left to right? #XPression

Hey Zachary, Thanks a lot for the informative response. You mentioned that scene groups are how crawls are done, so I checked the XPression tutorials and found this that seems to elaborate on what you're saying: XPression U: Creating a Simple Credit Roll on XPression (Quick Tips 132) I'm ...

For now we're just looking to put the information on one string for a text object, but I think that will work for a final solution as well. We haven't gotten the data yet but we did get a sample: https://pa.playsugarhouse.com/api/service/sportsbook/offering/feed?key=217b0d99-5732-46f4-aca9-09f08f9951dc ...

Hey Zachary, We're actually getting something like a list of class instances in an xml or json file. There will be one instance for each sports team then values for each team's wins and losses. I haven't gotten into this part yet, but we'll be making one long string from that data. The data will ...

Hello, I'm starting a project that requires getting a long string from Datalinq, then scrolling that text – to make a ticker. The most straightforward question would involve getting the text to scroll smoothly. Anyone have any ideas on how to do this? If there were a way I could grab the current ...

Hey Malcom, I'm actually not sure if combobox was the right word to use.. A text object has a user input control (template link) in the form of a dropdown.

Hello, On a text object I have a published combobox. I need to get the index of whichever element is selected by the user. Another approach might be to get the index of the element in the global list that informs the combobox, if that's possible. The ItemIndex property of an xpTextListWidget ...
