Problems creating Scripts with Shift+W

Post by nitrobox »

Hello,

I am Aeon Platinium user. Great software guys, congrats.
I have some problems regarding scripts. I found in Aeon FAQ that i can store certain combination of scene and color map by SHIFT+W and then certain key (lets say „6”).
The problem is Aeon is creating preset with .py (not .txt!) extension and then when i want to recall that preset i'm getting error: script „Key 6.txt” not found. Well, how to fix that? Anyone, or i am missing something?

Hello nitrobox

I am guessing you have already tried this:

To recall that script at a later time, press SHIFT+R and then 'X'. Aeon will look for a script named "Key X" and will attempt to run it.

If that is not working for you then contact the support dept as detailed in my other post.

Hey BTT,

Thank you for your assistance. Yes, of course i tried SHiFT+R and then 6, thats why i am reporting error: script "Key 6.txt" not found, because the file which is created after Shift+W and then 6 is Key 6.py, not Key 6.txt. Yes, i have contaced with SS support and i am awaiting their answer. I just wonder if other users of Aoen has the same issue, or is it just me, no one reported that...?

Hey BTT,

Thank you, i found the solution thx to this topic.
It looks like i have to manualy create Key 6.txt, and put there two lines:

Code: Select all

StartConfig( "ColorMap", "Color Map name", ss_QuickTransition );
StartConfig( "Scene", "Scene name", ss_QuickTransition );
After this is made Shift+R and then 6 runs the script properly. I would consider it's a bug as Shift+W doesn't make .txt file, at least in my version of Aeon which is Platinum 330.
Thank you for your assistance guys, you were very helpful!

Cheers

PS. BTT if you feel you would like to change my topic name to help other users with similar issue find solution here just feel free.

Edit: Just got response from SS
Thanks for writing to us.

We were able to recreate the error you describe with our current version of Aeon running on Windows, and we will be addressing this issue shortly in a point-release update. I apologize for the inconvenience, though we appreciate your patience in this matter.

Regards,

Paul Brower
