TimFranklin Posted May 31, 2022 Report Share Posted May 31, 2022 Hi all, how do you start a project file with a certain layer condition enabled? Ideally I could have a shortcut for each condition my setup will use. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator jfk Posted May 31, 2022 Moderator Report Share Posted May 31, 2022 Layer condition is an optional argument to the load command. Integer value following the show name to load. For exactly the purpose you request. https://www.dataton.com/watchout-users-guide/appendix/c-control-protocol/list-of-commands 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator jfk Posted June 1, 2022 Moderator Report Share Posted June 1, 2022 Fyi for conditional layer control novices You can also set default conditions that automatically enable when no conditions are specified. This is useful for defining a default language for example, so the show is less likely to run without audio. Those default conditions will re-enable for the 0 condition arguement. i.e. layer condition 0 is NOT all off, it is return to default. Default is defined in File - Preferences - Conditions. Anything enabled in this tab when the show is saved becomes the default when the show is opened. However, if you define non-zero conditions at load, or send a non-zero enableLayerCond command after load, either will override the defaults. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
