Xstudio streamlines the creation and control of data-driven graphics by automating tasks as
much as possible. This means that the average user can make a lot of things happen in
Xstudio without ever writing a line of code.
For advanced users with specific requirements not addressed by the application, however,
the Script Editor has been included.
Use the Script Editor to create custom actions that can be called in response to any event.
Commands can be written in any of the following common scripting languages:
•
VB Script
• JavaScript
• Perl
Once scripts have been written, they can be linked to control panels, pages, playlists, etc.,
using the Action Editor.
Our technical support department can also provide you with information regarding the
“Producer API”
for using scripts to trigger events, and access and manipulate other
Producer objects.
