new variable
Hi All,
Is there someone who is willing to help me with the following challenge. I try to make a variable which puts the scene name into an dedicated text field.
Every help is welcome
To show the value of a variable, insert a reference into the text. That can be done by clicking the Insert Reference button.
In the example image above, there is a Text variable called "Scene_Name," and it has a default value of "Scene 1: Introduction."
A variable will keep its value until a trigger adjusts it. After the value is adjusted, all of the references will show the new value.
- If you want a dedicated text field to show the current scene name based on one variable, you would need triggers to adjust the variable on every slide the user where the user might "enter" the scene. For example, if the built-in Menu is available, every slide in a scene would need a trigger that adjusts the variable to the name of that scene.
- Alternately, you could use different variables for the names of each scene.
