Button always sent

[alverman]

Good morning,
I should do so while holding down a button type custom script content is always sent to not release the button.
How can I do?

Thanks, Alverman

Hello Alvermann,
Are you looking for the mode, to change a button? You find it in the Item Properties (in the top left section) there you can decide, if you want your button to be a Click/Flash/Toggle Button
sorry, I do not quiet understand, maybe it would be better to post in italian as well, eventhough my italian is really bad, it could help me a little
best regards,

Ok nessun problema
Vorrei poter controllare il LENS SHIFT sul mio proiettore (EIKI XT5)
Nel pulsante ho messo su "on click script" : COMSend,2,C5F[CR]
In questo modo devo premere svariate volte per muovere la ottica.
Il mio scopo sarebbe quello di inviare sempre lo stesso comando fin quando il pulsante è premuto

Ok no problem:)
I wish I could control the LENS SHIFT on my projector (EIKI XT5)
I put on the button "on click script" : COMSend,2,C5F [CR]
In this way I have to press several times to move the lens.
My aim would be to send the same command until the button is pressed

Tnanks, Alberto

Ciao Alberto,
you can try to use the button Script Timer with your script COMSend,2,C5F [CR] and you can modify the interval in ms. You can start the timer using a simple custom script button in flash mode and on click function you can add WDScriptTimerStart,'ID' and on release WDScriptTimerStop,'ID'. At the end if you press the button the timer starts lauching the the script to the projector with your desired interval and when you release the timer stops.
I hope this helps

Hi ricky,
this is a really good idea, as always I was thinking way to complicated with defining a variable which is changing if the button is either clicked or released and then combining a variable node with an output node "COM Port Message".
The Timer Button is way easier But wouldn´t it be even easier to just press the timer instead of an extra button telling him to do so with the start/end scripts. Alberto could press the Timer itself in order to send the COM-Message every x ms and and press it again in order to stop it...

Yes Martina, but the timer button don't have a text space !!
I have 8 button, 4 for lens shift and 4 for keystone and if I use only timer button I can insert 8 label.
I prefer insert 8 button over the 8 timer button

Thanks, Alberto

ahh, sure, that makes sense, then you could even put 8 more buttons in there, telling the timers to run only once in order to do the finetuning in the end...
