Check how I personalized my Panel Builder Love this little App....works great, and I also have vertical layouts for special occasions

Downloaded, and am running some tests...so far, still a little now and then-ish...it is not updating as smoothly as earlier versions, but I like the new setup....the floating window is good, as in older versions, I had to open up the size to see what I was doing, and sometimes it got in the way of some things....I am still having a sluggish response to updating the User Icons, and sometimes it takes a couple of tries to get the updates to load...The removal of file location is very much welcomed....now I can see the names of my layouts, as I create a few for different layouts for certain functions...and name them so I can load the correct one when setting up ...Tanks again, and i will continue to test and report back here....

Update : version 2.0.40 ----- revert to version 2.0.36 until further update (Thanks Joeboe for finding a few bugs) ---

thanks richard for the VU object.
great!

Hi Joeboe,

I probably wasn't too clear in the description of the change. Here is a better explanation.

If you use a command in a button such as "Fade" and specify an "Input", the button would not show the tally when it was active. Now it does. This was a request from a user that likes to use a " Transistion" bus rather than use a Preview and Program bus.

The "LoopOn" command was always available in the "InputSelect" group, but would not show a tally if the input's "Loop" was On. Now it shows a tally, to reflect the condition of the Input in vMIx.

Thanks for your support,
cheers,
Richard

I am looking for a way to get one button to control Record and Multicorder at the same time....I have to use 2 buttons, which can be tricky at times in a fast pace usage

Thanks...that was simple.....I even forgot all about scripting......but I did not create those 2 small buttons, I left the already created buttons, which tally Red, so when I activate the new button, those 2 previously created buttons tally.....so, it is easier to notice, plus, I still have the option to do each action seperately....Thanks again

EDIT: I just notice something ...the audio meters are not working as well as earlier versions...they seem to be over shooting the actual graphics that represent them....I thought it was just the laptop I was using, but it is happening on every system I placed it on....it happens mostly when the the levels reach the yellow section..



Hare 2 screen shots of how I personlise and use The Panel Builder. My friend, whose system I use, is very pleased with how I have his system is looking...Note: The 'T' bar...did that in Photoshop....makes the surface look more like a hardware version..made some screws, but but did not worry to place them...Thought that was taking things too far....but it looked great when I tried them....

Here are 2 more.....I just get get carried away sometimes with this program....but some of the ideas are usually for friends I work with...they just want to look different, so when I make a layout, I modify it for myself...I must be different too....

I can't connect the i-pac to the vMix panel Builder, can they be on the same PC?

Hi. This looks awesome, and I would love to start testing.

Unfortunately I'm hitting a roadblock trying to sync templates. I've tried running the deskop app (which I already use regularly) either on a Mac on my network, or on the Windows machine that runs VMix, and turning on the "Sync to Tablet" option there.

Regardless of which computer I run the desktop app runs, I'm seeing user icons available to sync, but no templates.

Any idea on what step I might be missing? I've tried opening old templates, or creating new ones from scratch, but the list of available templates is always empty.

@ Narcogen

Thanks for your interest in testing. I'm assuming you might be trying to load your old .csv files and not those (.tab) needed for an iPad? Here is an explanation of how the files work for the iPad.

In order for the iPad to read templates files, they must be created for the iPad. When you create a "New Tablet" template it will now save the file in the "Documents/vMix Panel Builder" directory with a .tab file type. This is the file types that the iPad will retrieve and display when you go to load a file. The reason for this is that the canvas size of the template, must match that of an iPad. When you create or created a "New Desktop" it creates .csv files, and allows you to change the canvas size, so some old templates would not fit if they were larger than an iPad.

Having said that, if you have an old .csv canvas that is small enough to be displayed on the iPad and don't want to completely recreate it, you can create a copy and rename it with a .tab file type. You could then edit it to properly fit the iPad. Then the file could be loaded into the iPad.

Please feel free to ask for additional help if you need.

much appreciated,
Richard
