Topic: Getting information from VirtualDJ

This topic is old and might contain outdated or incorrect information.

I know i can make things happen based on certain things, Like Visibility="not_loaded", but i can't find a list of the things i can query, like how do i set visibility based on if the deck is playing or stopped? Or Paused, as opposed to stopped... etc...

well, sure, I have... but there is no verb "Playing" listed there...

In fact, "visibility" is not listed either....

Play is the verb any verb that can be queried (returns true or false) can be used, I believe querying sliders gives transparency based on the slider value

Visibility is a skin condition based on the verb queried.

and where can I read more about that? a text search of the VDJ wiki produced very little results for the text "visibility"....

EDIT: Ok, i found a bit, still no list of what i can pass to it... I'd like to have something visible when song_pos = 0, but otherwise not visible.

read the skin wiki, dissect other skins

visibility="song_pos 0"

Aha... I tried "song_pos = 0"...

Been reading the wiki since i posted...

one more then, if you don't mind, i can't find anything about reversing the rotation direction of a spinning graphic...

Also, it's difficult to find skins that do what i want them to do, makes it hard to find examples...

I believe...., but skinning isn't my thing

get_rotation & param_invert

best explain what you are wanting

Thank you for your help, that worked. but song_pos 0 did not. thats ok tho, i'll get it eventually. sorry to be a bother!

Ha Ha! song_pos = 0 makes the graphic fade in as the song progresses!!!

That will be handy to know for the future!

it won't be
song_pos = 0

what vdj will see is
song_pos
which will return a value from 0% to 100%

try
song_pos 0 ? on : off
