Topic: rack orientation

This topic is old and might contain outdated or incorrect information.

The container "<rack>" works fine in horizontal by default
one unit by visible element, one panel per size depending on number of elements to display (global width / nb)

<rack name="rack1">
<unit name="unit1" >
<panel ...1
...
<panel ...N
</unit>
<unit name="unit2" >
<panel ...1
...
<panel ...N
</unit>
...
<unit name="unitN" >
<panel ...1
...
<panel ...N
</unit>
</rack>

is there a way to do the same vertically (parameter like orientation= or direction= or group= )?

EDIT: original title was "<Rack > orientation" forgot site remove &gt; and &lt; from titles :/

Up until now I have always wondered what a rack is in VDJ.
Can you explain that to me in more detail?
I have never found this in a skin until now, just seen the mapping command.
Would interest me.
Greetings Dani

Yes djdad, that's where i got the infos :)
never saw it anywhere else ^^

rack allows multiple panels to share the same area at a time, one being prioritized showing at different size depending on visible panels
I explain:
say you have 4 panels
you can display at full size one panel
at 3/4 1/4 when 2 panels selected
at 1/2 1/4 1/4 when 3 panels are selected
and 1/4 1/4 1/4 1/4 when 4 panels are selected

any panel can take preference (rack_prioritize)
any panel can hide or show (rack)
any panel can overrite the other settings (rack solo)

of course all 4 panels have to define in all 4 sizes

@djdutschi
More infos were in french and italian forums ... a long time ago and disappeared
still remain quick description in the wiki for VDJscript verbs under skin section:

Here it is in action with songpos in 4 decks mode with 4 first deck displaying (over 8) and deck3 prioritized

as you can see, decks 1 and 2 and 4 are 1/8 the total size and deck 3 is 1/2 the total size
