====== Set Timecode Start from Palette fade ======

Set the Timecode start time for versions pre Titan v14. The challenge is that this reqires a TimecodeTime object but the required cast was only implemented in Titan v14. The workaround is to set the palette fade time (as you would do by simply entering a number) and then call a macro which uses this to set the timecode start time.

For versions from Titan v14 on you can directly set the Timecode starttime using [[:webapi:requests:Timecode.TimecodeOne.SetStartTime]].

===== Screenshots =====

1. use RestMan (or another way to output a Post request) to set the palette fadetime
^{{:webapi:examples:restman.png?600|}}|


2. call a macro (here: [[macros:example:timecodestarttimefrompalettefade|]] to use the value as Timecode start time)
^ {{:webapi:examples:macrorun.png?600|}}|

**In order to call a macro via WebAPI it needs to be in the show library AND needs to be copied/moved to a handle.**

===== How it works =====

''Set Numeric Value'' the value from the adjacent input field and sends it to Titan as numeric value (as like as used to set a palette fade time).

''Set 0'', ''Set 1'', ''Set 5'' send some predefined values.

''Set TC1 Start'' fires the macro to use the numeric value as timecode 1 start time.

**Remember to download and deploy the macro [[macros:example:timecodestarttimefrompalettefade|]].**
