setting frame rate

setting frame rate

Thanks Aloys - the problem with OnNewSceneEvent is that, it is not
called when you start XSI, it is called only when you do CTRL + N /File
-> New Scene. I think I will go with the empty scenes concept.



Thanks

Hi Biju,

You might try to setup two events: OnNewSceneEvent and OnSceneLoadEvent.
Then you could set the framerate according to the name of your project
(ActiveProject.Name).
The problem is that if you make a new scene the active project is the
last used one, so you might miss some cases when the user creates a new
scene then save it in another project.

What you could also do is prepare a set of empty scenes for all your
projects with the good settings and make the user open these scenes
instead of create a new one.

Or you could create a OnNewSceneEvent and popup a modal dialog that
choose the active project and set the framerate as you want.

Hope this help!

Aloys

Hi All,



Since we are working on different projects simultaneously with different
frame rate setting - I need help finding a way to set the frame rate
based on the project the user is working on.



One way would be to call XSI events which runs a script that checks for
the project name and calls the corresponding frame rate setting
function. Is there any other better way of doing this ?



Thanks



Biju
