Hi all!
Here's a couple new TAOO XOSMediaLib functions im sure many are going to
enjoy!
However I know this one feature is much needed so i can release it outside
the TAOO framework.
here's the little add-on-script i made to see if an image existed or was
loaded and by what stack.
To use it, just script
get imageNameexists(987654)
get imageidexists(987654)
-- it will return which stack or false.
<script>
global xos
function ImageIDExists imgID
RefreshGlobalImages
get the keys of xos
filter it with "stackimages,*"
sort it
repeat for each line thisstack in it
if imgID is among the items of xos[thisstack]
then return item 2 of thisstack
end repeat
return false
end ImageIDExists
function ImageNameExists imgName
RefreshGlobalImages
get the keys of xos
filter it with "stackimages,*"
sort it
repeat for each line thisstack in it
if imgName is among the items of xos[thisstack]
then return item 2 of thisstack
end repeat
return false
end ImageNameExists
on RefreshGlobalImages
put the windows into wlist
repeat for each line thisstack in wlist
put the number of images in stack thisstack into imgcount
if imgcount is not xos["stackimages",thisstack,"imgcount"] then
put imgcount into xos["stackimages",thisstack,"imgcount"]
repeat with x = 1 to imgcount
put the properties of img x of stack thisstack into imgprops
put imgprops["id"],imgprops["name"] into \
line x of xos["images",thisstack]
end repeat
end if
end repeat
end RefreshGlobalImages
</script>
You dont have to wait anymore for another rev release to do this and rev
doesn't have to waste their time on this one either. All in all we gained a
lot of time!
Time is money, so i hope that each time this function doesn't return false,
you will be motivated to visit my paypal for that "if i had a penny each
time i crashed runrev because of an image id manipulation"...
;)
This script will be quickly incorporated into the xosmedialib for added
media management in RunRev via TAOO. Other sub-functions of this will be
added like liststackimages(All,<stackname>,<filter>) etc...
XOSMediaLib manages images in the TAOO workflow world - it manages among
other things image ids, and names for a large library of images which are
used across the TAOO framework and templates or any stack opened. It also
manages icons and patterns whence you change an image id for example. It's
available on MonsieurX.com with the latest release notes in the
MonsieurX.com/forums.
Enjoy
Xavier
