hi vmixers!
I have a question that I can't resolve and maybe you can help me.

I have 2 shortcuts for the sport score title:
- one adds a point each time. (The shortcut has a value:+=1 Each time that I press the key adds a point to the marker)
- the other shortcut is to activate a graphic that indicates the setpoint.

I'm thinking about using script to join the two in an only one shortcut.
But I can't get the script to add bridges every time, is it possible?

The script that I'm using is:

Function=SetText&Input=NAMEOFTHEINPUT&SelectedName=HomeScore&Value=1

I have tried to add +=1 the same value of the shortcut but it does not work.
what am I doing wrong? or is it just not possible?

Thanks in advance!

Just have the 2 shortcuts under the same key
otherwise i do not understand what you are trying to say : activate a graphics while doing a settext function?
is the inout really called "NAMEOFTHEINPUT" ?

Hi Doggy,

Thank you for responding quickly.

I explain better. Imagine two Scores, local and visitor

At the moment that the local team do a point, it adds a point and a small Circle(in on the multilayer) is activated indicating that it has the set/possession of the game
At the moment that the other team adds a point and get the set(and the drawing changes to it)

NAMEOFTHEINPUT, No!😅 , the input name is not this! It was only to not complicate the explanation.

you havent mentioned if your activate graphics is workign with your shortcut and basically are using the function wrongly in the script you are trying

would advice to use .net scripting and using and api call when doing multiple function calls in a script ( see "scripting for dummies" post )

on the other hand changing a graphics based on a value needs some scripting to test and such to check scoring rules

then again changing a graphics part of a title isnt that hard : see

hi Doggy,

I will check what you tell me.
My idea was to make something easy to graphic operator, using 2 key/shortcut at a time out of 4 key/shortcut but maybe it's not worth spending so much time with the script.

thanks for trying to help

One can only do so much based on the little information given (and a bit still confusing added with every post)

I am very thankfull for your help.

I was just learning about how scripts works and I tried to apply them to one of my works, that's why I've told it little by little but it has complicated it...😅

We can focus on the first syntax leaving aside other problems.

If I want to add a point each time, as I do with the shortcut (Value +=1), it is possible to do it with a script.
Function=SetText&Input=NAMEOFTHEINPUT&SelectedName=HomeScore&Value=1
Just out of curiosity

Finally a question to the point !! yes it is possible. Any shortcut function can be used within a script (need to choose what type of script for the proper syntax)
Did you follow my sugestion from before ? (see "scripting for dummies" post )

I don't mean to waste anyone's time. Before asking I checked the forum but I didn't find anything similar. I will review the article you mention.
Thanks again for answering and for your time
