description: | set master release time |
remarks: |
This selection of macros lets you change the master release time. These macros have Active Binding set so they will highlight and give visual feedback.
The code below is a snippet of the whole file which contains macros for various release times (the same times you will find for palette fade).
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <avolites.macros xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="Avolites.Menus.xsd"> <macro id="adb.Macros.Releasetime4" name="adb Master Release Time 5s"> <active binding="{propertyLink id='Playbacks.MasterReleaseTime' converter='Playbacks.Editor.Times.TimeEqualityConverter' converterParameter='5'}"/> <sequence> <step>ActionScript.SetProperty("Playbacks.MasterReleaseTime", time:5)</step> </sequence> </macro> </avolites.macros>
This explains the functional steps within the sequence. For all the other XML details please refer to Formats and syntax
Playbacks.MasterReleaseTime
is the property that defines the master release time and needs to be set via ActionScript.SetProperty
active binding
is used to highlight a macro when the corresponding property (propertyLink id
) matches the converterParameter
. A good starting point to understand active binding is either this wiki or this post in the Avo forum http://forum.avolites.com/viewtopic.php?f=20&t=5962
