    • Condition: Sets the type of condition if Format is set to number.

  • Arguments: Sets the arguments for the conditional operation.

  • Action Type / Action: Sets the action that is to be performed when the condition is met. It can be a control object command like “ON 2 SET mytext” or a Viz Engine command prefixed by a zero and a space.

  • Use Else Commands: Triggers an else action when the input data falls within the conditions when enabled.

    • Else Action: Sets the else action that is triggered when the input data does not fall within the conditions.

Example Actions

Actions can be Control Object commands in the form like this:

“ON 2 SET Mike Johnson”

or commands like:

0 RENDERER*STAGE START

Viz Engine commands must be prefixed with a zero followed by a space. This is to enable the plug-in to recognize that the command should be interpreted as a Viz Engine command.
