Hi everyone,

after watching Heaths youtube video about scripting I wantedt to try it by myself.

I had made a american football scoreboard with GT Title Designer before the season here in Germany and it works great with shortcuts and streamdeck.

There are around 120 shortcuts and it's a little confusing to maintenance it.

It is really helpful to reduce the shortcuts from 8 to 1 using websripting.

My Problem is now that with the function SetText the script is not doing what it should.

In Heats example "Function=SetText&Input=TitleHeath&SelectedName=Headline.text&Value=Majestics Waterfall" it works as it should.
In my case the script doesn´nt find the field "Headline.text" with the parameter "SelectetName", if I use the parameter "SelectedTitle" he finds it.
But the next time I want to use the parameter "SelectedName" or "SelectedTitle" he didn't find the answear and didn't change the text.

Here my Script:

Function=SetText&Input=scoreboard&SelectedTitle=Scoretext.text&Value=TOUCHDOWN
Function=SetImageVisibleOn&Input=scoreboard&SelectedName=ScoreBG.Source
Function=SetTextVisibleOn&Input=scoreboard&SelectedName=Scoretext.Text
Function=SetImageVisibleOn&Input=scoreboard&SelectedName=Heim_Logo_Score.Source
Sleep 7000
Function=SetImageVisibleOff&Input=scoreboard&SelectedName=ScoreBG.Source
Function=SetTextVisibleOff&Input=scoreboard&SelectedName=Scoretext.Text
Function=SetImageVisibleOff&Input=scoreboard&SelectedName=Heim_Logo_Score.Source
Function=SetText&Input=scoreboard&SelectedName=heim.text&Value=%2B%3D6

Has anyone a clue what is wrong?

Thanks for your help!

Really need to use scripting ;-)


Might be helpful to know the details of the title used ; its full name in the input, the exact text and image field names (screenshot would help) etc

Check for spaces or capital letters in both title and script details and correct function use

Code:
for starters
Function=SetText&Input=scoreboard&SelectedTitle=Scoretext.text&Value=TOUCHDOWN
should at least be 
Function=SetText&Input=scoreboard&SelectedName=Scoretext.Text&Value=TOUCHDOWN

I think your help was succesful, it was the capital T in Heim.Text and Scoreboard.Text.

Thanks a lot!
