Please Help - Conditional Animation on Track Change (1 Viewer)

[Mr. V]

Hi,

I am using MP svn 28130

My code for a spinning cd (works great and love the now working conditional animation)
<animation effect="slide" time="300" end="-50,0" reversible="true" condition="player.paused">Conditional</animation>
<animation effect="rotate" delay="0" end="-360" time="2000" loop="true" reversible="false" condition="!player.paused">Conditional</animation>

What i would like to achieve is a slide effect on track change only if the next album is different from the one playing.

I have been trying for the past hour to figure this out, so im not sure if its even possible.

Please if one of the devs, skinners or someone could help it would be much appreciated.

Any body?

Would love to get this implemented in my music skin for 1.2RC if it is possible.

Just need to know if it is possible. If not i might have to request an aditional feature.

Or at the very least i'm not quite clear on the conditional visibility of the player conditions. The wiki does not explain enough.

Hi Mr. V - it is always hard to know if there really is no way to do it. However, I have never been able to figure out a way to trigger an animation on a track change, or many other changes for that matter (such as a new item in a facade). So yes I think you are talking about a new player condition, such as player.trackchange or whatever.

About the Wiki, are you referring to the page on Conditional Animations? If so, which ones are not clear (I assume player.playing is ) I can try to find someone who knows the code to clarify those.

I don't think it's possible, because there is no boolean condition for it.

Thanks. Just what i need to know.

Any chance for 1.3 boolean conditions could be added to conditional animations?
