Include Scripts have many uses:
- Include Scripts/Buttons act as though they have a primary/ replica relationship. One button can be included in other buttons via an include script, then anytime you make a change to the original button (be it content changing out, or even adding new script lines), it updates everywhere you have included that button in another button.
- Speed up new button creation by allowing commonly used commands to be added in via previously created buttons - Ex. Setting transitions, blanking commands, pauses, waits, and resumes, etc.
- Create buttons that trigger both content and video looks - Show Control System: How do I create buttons that trigger look changes for my 6000 Processor?
- A button can have the same amount of include commands as it can have script lines. You can also create includes that call to existing buttons that already have an include in them.
Environment
- Product:
- Components: Display Studio
- Control System: Show Control System (SCS)
Steps
The Include Script feature will enable users to quickly add an existing Script-Button's collection of script commands to a new Script-Button's collection of commands - during the new Script-Button's configuration procedure. Accordingly, this feature is meant to provide additional convenience by minimizing the time required to build script command collections - particularly in circumstances in which these collections contain many common script-command items.
- In a scripting container, right click in an empty space to create a new button
- Select System Control
- Select Include Script
- Select Add
