Touch osc layout

Post by Pace514 »

Hi Claude !!!

I would like to make myself a landscape layout using touchOSC. It is easy to rotate everything by 90 degrees (eventough you have to do it one item at a time) but is it possible to display the infos in the: RUNNING CUE, NEXT CUE and DIMMERS accordingly ?

One more time, thank you for your so much appreciate help !

The dropbox file does not exist. It's hard to tell exactly what you are asking about. If you look at the TouchOSC Remote file that's included with LXConsole (LXConsole->Install Extras->TouchOSC Remote), you should be able to see how the fields are set up and what OSC address pattern to use.

As you see, i can cheat and resize the window but the infos inside those windows are still displayed vertically. Is there a way to display it horizontally ?

Thanks a lot !

Unfortunately, there is not a way to rotate objects using TouchOSC Editor. You have to make a new object with the desired orientation. Its not terrifically hard to do this. You just need to note the properties of the old label, particularly the OSC. And use those properties in the new object with the opposite orientation.

On the User Contributed files page, https://www.claudeheintzdesign.com/cgi- ... d_user.cgi, there is an copy of the LXConsole remote layout that is in landscape orientation. You could potentially copy and paste objects from that as well.

Dear Claude !!!

I have tried to copy/paste your LXConsole remote layout that is in landscape orientation but it is not working. Concerning ''making a new object'', do you mean modifying a code ?. I wish i could do that ! Maybe in another life...

Thanks anyway !

No, I mean adding a new element to the TouchOSC layout. In TouchOSC Editor, it is not obvious how to do this. But, you right-click (or, hold the control key and click, or two finger tap on a trackpad) in the layout area and a menu will popup with elements.

When you copy and paste in TouchOSC Editor, the layouts must be in the same orientation or what you paste will be rotated 90 degrees. Another thing that is not immediately obvious in TouchOSC Editor is that in the Layout, the Orientation setting is necessary to be set correctly, even if you change the width and height in the custom size to make a landscape aspect layout.

When the Orientation is horizontal, you'll be able to copy and paste from the landscape LXConsole remote file.
