I suggest looking at all of the media and make sure the Resolution is ALL THE SAME.  I have had this happen to me, and fixing the resolution to the same did it.

I'm having an emergency. I have a whole show file that maybe has been corrupted by some bad files. I have a step back version but it's a whole day of work. The files that gave me error message are just jpgs which seems really strange...I've never had that happen before...is it usual. I also have one video file that seemed to be corrupt but when I removed it, nothing changed. The effect of all this was that the video feed was advancing, but the scenes in isadora weren't. So I was seeing something projected that was not on screen...and that seemed bizarre. And then the engine basically just froze. They're finishing a run (dress rehearsal) so I can't problem solve right now...but once I get my computer back can anyone suggest order of steps to quickly solve this problem. Do I need to step all the way back to the previous day's file?

Thanks

@woland Thank you L this is an alternative solution which I hadn't thought about. I'll check this out too. Many thanks!

You could use Cheetah3D to make actual 3d wheels with numbers on them, then use the 3D Player actor to rotate them and the 3D Stage Orientation actor to position the "camera" in the right place.

@dbini Hey John many thanks for your wise words. I will try out the Ease In/Out actors. If you have time to elaborate on your "conditional logic" comment that will be much appreciated.

Thanks again! 🙏

Hi Simon. 

Ease In/Out might be better than Envelope Generators, giving you the inertia feeling - it might also be easier to set up with conditional logic to enable you to trigger different destination years.

Hello Isadora community I hope you're all well.

For an upcoming production I need to project the four numbers of a particular year, for example: 2026.

Each number needs to be presented independently in a smooth vertical scrolling slot-machine format. The closest example I can think of is Apple's iPhone timer.

In my mind the Isadora scene will fade up with each of the four numbers scrolling vertically, independently, with an element of inertia to replicate the Apple feel.

I need it to be programmable so that each number comes to rest correctly in a sequence for the year in question.

The production will require this to be replicated several times in different Isadora scenes, however, each scene will display a different year / sequence of 4 numbers.

I've made a start and included the file: scroll-txt-test.izz

Perhaps the way forward is with some python code or Javascript but I'm no coder.

I would really appreciate any thoughts / expertise on how I can formulate this process.

Many thanks and best wishes,

Simon

Was that helpful at all?

The link you posted no longer works, so I thought I'd ask about it, even though its not exactly what I'm doing.

 I can't remember exactly what I did, but I'm guessing it was probably this but with User Actors that were the same as what was shown in the screenshots above:

I was searching for ways to batch connect all 32 outputs in a Sequential Trigger to one input on a Counter actor. It's how I do supertitles for shows. It works great but SUPER tedious and time consuming. 

For your purposes, to make it so that all inputs trigger the output, you can use a JavaScript actor with the default code:

If you do this a lot, it'd be even faster if you build a User Actor for it:

Note: The gifs are kinda low-res because of the file size limit here on the forum, but the file download below has Comment actors that explain each step I took for each of the gifs

@woland This is an old thread, but I was intrigued by it.

If you have thoughts or a workaround that would be great. I think this would be a awesome feature too. It would come in handy frequently for me.

Thanks!
