Usage
member(whichCastmember).model(whichModel).bonesPlayer.queue\
(motionName {, looped, startTime, endTime, scale, offset})
member(whichCastmember).model(whichModel).keyframePlayer.\
queue(motionName {, looped, startTime, endTime, scale, offset})
Description
3D keyframePlayer and bonesPlayer modifier command; adds a specified motion to the end
of the modifier’s
playList property. The motion is executed by the model when all the motions
ahead of it in the playlist are finished playing.
Parameters
motionName
Required. Specifies the name of the motion to add.
looped Optional. Specifies whether the motion plays once (FALSE) or continuously (TRUE).
startTime Optional. Measured in milliseconds from the beginning of the motion. When looped
is FALSE, the motion begins at offset and ends at endTime. When looped is TRUE, the first
iteration of the loop begins at
offset and ends at endTime. All subsequent repetitions begin at
startTime and end at endTime.
endTime Optional. Measured in milliseconds from the beginning of the motion. When looped
is FALSE, the motion begins at offset and ends at endTime. When looped is TRUE, the first
iteration of the loop begins at
offset and ends at endTime. All subsequent repetitions begin at
cropStart and end at endTime. Set endTime to -1 if you want the motion to play to the end.
scale Optional. Specifies the actual speed of the motion’s playback. scale is multiplied by the
playRate property of the model’s #keyframePlayer modifier or #bonesPlayer modifier to
determine the actual speed of the motion’s playback.
offset Optional. Measured in milliseconds from the beginning of the motion. When looped is
FALSE, the motion begins at offset and ends at endTime. When looped is TRUE, the first
iteration of the loop begins at offset and ends at endTime. All subsequent repetitions begin at
startTime and end at endTime.
Example
The following Lingo adds the motion named Fall to the end of the bonesPlayer playlist of the
model named Walker. When all motions before Fall in the playlist have been executed, Fall will
play one time from beginning to end.
sprite(1).member.model("Walker").bonesPlayer.queue\
("Fall", 0, 0, -1, 1, 0)
