Hi - I have a JSON file with some live results https://www.zwiftpower.c...ache/live/5490_8700.jsonI want to show the top 10 and certain columns but I also want to show particular information from selected rows and columns. I made this title I was hoping to use but I hit the stumbling block of how to get the data out i wanted. File Attachment(s):  LIVE-POS.xaml (7kb) downloaded 17 time(s).You cannot view/download attachments. Try to login or register.

Hi! Quote:I want to show the top 10 You can't do that with this JSON source. It'd require you to convert rows to columns which, I just tried, don't seem to work in vMix However you can use this datasource for displaying information in your titles based on rows selection and picking the good columns.

But I can't do multiple row selection to display multiple rows in the same title?

Nope!
the only way to do a top10 in vMix is to have all 10 information as a single row, like:
ID1, name1, ranking1, ID2, name2, ranking2, ID3, name3, ranking3, etc...
vMix can only work with one row at a time

Thanks DWAM for the help - we now have it working as the JSON files were written for our use.
Within the title fields do you know how to limit the number of shown characters in the xaml file? e.g. limit the characters from a JSON field to show first 10 only?

Quote:Within the title fields do you know how to limit the number of shown characters in the xaml file? With vMix Title Designer you can simply do this by setting the width of the text area to match your need. Otherwise you need to use Expression Blend to create the XAML file

I set the text area but it overlfows onto the next line - which seams odd File Attachment(s): LIVE-POS.xaml (13kb) downloaded 2 time(s).You cannot view/download attachments. Try to login or register.

Yep sorry my mistake. This is the default behaviour.
I'm afraid you will need to use Blend with a "substring" or a "left" command
If your data source was XML, I think you could do it directly with XPath

or change some of the code
mtl:TextBlockDesign is a vMix asset in the xaml code which allows you to have a colored stroke around the characters
Personally i prefer the standard TextBlock and add TextTrimming="CharacterEllipsis" to it to solve the truncating issue and show text has been shortened
try changing the code : replace mtl:TextBlockDesign with TextBlock and delete Fill="#FFFFFFFF" and add TextTrimming="CharacterEllipsis" in each line and see if that suits you
EDIT: REPLACE Fill with Foreground !

PS as far as i saw single long words are ok, problem arises when using multiple words in a textblock
edit: when using vMix TextBlockDesign !

Thanks i will try it - is it maybe because the Text is actually an input from a value from a JSON file?

Glad you did Quote:the JSON files were written for our use. now make sure the JSON file (or any other type) is also created properly to get rid of the unreadable characters ;-) (saved as UTF8 compliant or whatever its called)
