Groups in Isadora?
-
Hi Guys, Can anyone help with this? I'm wondering if there is a way to group things in Isadora in order for them all to go through the same projector and mapping.
I'd like several audio reactive elements (All reacting in a slightly different way) to then go through the same projection mapping. The audio reactive elements would be simple blocks of colour etc.I'm mapping on several (real world) boxes and using a grid distortion to map the footage on. It would save a lot of time if I could copy and paste projectors and use them with other elements.Thanks in advance.Stuart -
Build them into a User Actor and just recycle the User Actor wherever you need it?

Or a macro. I tend to use Macros more than User actors. But one one of these methods will be helpful for sure.

i tend to build a macro and work in it until i'm happy, and then convert it to a user actor if i think it'll be useful elsewhere with global updating.
i can't quite work out from your description what you are trying to achieve. if its one projector with various video feeds at the same time, you could use a multimix actor.if its one projector needed for various scenes, but you want to keep the mapping consistent, you could use a broadcast/listener system with one projector running in a background scene, or, as Marci suggested, a custom user actor to house your projector.
