Hi,
to get the thumbnails into the media control panel you need to run CITP first.
So you need to go to the configuration tab in the Player and set the CITP Thumbnail Exchange to run. (only from Version 4.5 or higher)
And you also need to set DMX Folder and File IDs to all your content.
Now you need to get the thumbnails into the widget designer. For that you neet to do a right mouse click in the normal window and select "ip configuration". In there you find a button "download thumbnails". if you press this one it will take all content from your project and creates thumbnails for the widget designer. They are sorted from the set folder and file id from you Player project.
If you now create a Media Control you can choose the folder from a drop down menue and it will show all thumbnails from that folder. If you want to load a clip onto a layer you just need to click onto the thumbnail.
If you want to control more than one device with one panel just add more decives to the top list, like 1,1 1,2 1,3 for layer 1 to 3.
The Pandoras Box Helpfile gives you already a lot of information on the Widget Designer. We are working on a new helpfile with all the new features of the Widget Designer, I hope it will be out in March.
We also do offer Widget Designer Trainings in Germany. I know its not that close to Israel, but maybe you have a chance to come to germany to attend a training.
If you have further questions, just let us know.
Best wishes
Patrick
