Topic: Syntax / logic for multiple TEXTZONE commands

Dieses Thema ist veraltet und kann veraltete oder falsche Informationen enthalten.

I want to create a TextZone that has track time info in a big font and a title for the data in a smaller font. The way I know to do this is similar to the way %author, %title data is handled, by defining TextZones next to each other.

I would like to be able to click on the time info data and have it change from Elapsed, to Remaining time for example. I can do this, however if the titles "Remaining" & "Elapsed" are in thir own TextZone, the titles would not change with the single click of the time data. I hope I am making sense.

Fruit, Nordic, anyone, help me out here. Thanks !

hmmm.. was a bit hard to clearly see what u are asking.. sorry :)

but if you want to click on "ELAPSED TIME" to change it to "REMAINING TIME", in the SAME timezone (same area/position on skin) it's done by adding another text line..within the same "textzone" tag

for example (within the same "textzone" tag):
text font="12" etc etc
text2 font="12" etc etc

%spent : shows the spent time of the song
%left : shows the left time of the song

Adding the letter "P" right between "%" caracter and the command, will make it relative to pitch

for more reference on textzone there is a good manual at forum as well:

i'm not sure if this was what u where asking for...

Not exactly what I was asking Norway, but thanks for trying to answer.

What I am asking is how to make the data that is displayed in 2 different TextZones change when only one TextZone is clicked.

oh ;) hehe

thats not the easiest thing to explain here...
to trigger change in more than one area, it usually have to be in a PANNEL:.. using the pannel tag

and thats waaaaay more complex to try to explain.. lol

in basic, it works like this :
- a button/area clicked will trigger a pannel that changes grouped elements
- both textzones have belong to that particular pannel

so.. within the textzone there must be a pannel="" part

and the pannel has to be defined in size and position in its own pannel definition tags (equal to the textzones who want to group)

try reading a bit in the link above, and u might figure it out.

Its a bit complex too explain here, but its not to hard to make, if u give it a shot
