I have a panel that I would like to be visible only when a certain effect is active. Is this possible with VDJScript and how?
Something like this:
deck 1 effect 'flanger' active ? skin_pannel 'FlangerOptions' on : skin_pannel "GeneralEffectOptions' on
Actually I can write this in a button and it works, but ONLY if I press the button! I want it to work ALL the time. Meaning that if the user activates flanger (even via keyboard or controller) my "FlangerOptions" pannel will show up....
Is it possible to make something like this?
(Damn, why the team didn't bother to add a simple querry mechanism to unleash the power of scripting???)

You may have to deffine it on you MIDI Mapper too that the skin hase to change the panel... so you have to entry the same skript in your mapper... that may work. I've aktual no runnig version of VDJ 6 because i'm only a Limmited user. All controllings and skripts are based on skinns and Keyboard / Mouse operations when i plugin a MIDI controller.

That's my point... If a user uses the drop down effect selector to select the 'flanger' for instance, there's no way to tell VDJ to switch the pannel on/off.
You can only define the action to the button that activates the effect itself, but I want to do more stuff like this than just display a pannel when a given effect is active...

Have you tried ...
deck 1 effect select "Flanger" ? action 1 : action 2
deck 1 effect select "Flanger" ? action 1 : action 2

I don't think it is possible. I tried to do a similar thing when automix is active.
I asked JeremK to enquire about getting it added to the next major release!
