Explanation

This explains the functional steps within the sequence. For all the other XML details please refer to Formats and syntax

This is an example of how to set a playback's legend. (There is another example for setting a playback cue's legend).

  • Handles.SetSourceHandleFromHandle(“chaseHandleUN=10555”) selects a specific handle to set its legend.
  • ActionScript.SetProperty(“Handles.PendingLegend”, “Test”) sets the general property 'Handles.PendingLegend' to a specific string
  • Handles.SetLegend() applies this legend to the previously selected playback
  • Handles.ClearSelection() unselects the playback handle.

How to use it

  1. edit to meet your needs (or set a chaser to userNumber 10555) and make this macro available
  2. call this macro to set this playback's legend. Most likely you will use this for other purposes.
