I am trying to create a source in Wire that will step through a folder of jpegs with each Note on signal from a Midi input. I am using Image resource with a reference to the folder which is then connected to a Read node, and Image node to Texture out. By increasing the Index value of the Read node I can manually select the images in the folder. But I want to do this through Midi Note On messages.
The Midi signal is routed through Is Note On to If and True is connected to a Counter. The float signal from the Counter is converted to an Integer with an Int node. Each key press increments the output number as an integer.
However when I try to connect the output on the Int to the Index inlet of the Read node Wire disconnects the Read node from the Image node.
What am I doing wrong?
Wire disconnects
Re: Wire disconnects
I now think I know what I'm doing wrong - trying to connect an event flow outlet to an attribute flow inlet - but how do I do it right?
If I have nothing connected to the Index inlet of the Read node I can manually change the index number and pull up the corresponding image to the Image node. I assume that I can change that number by some other means but this assumption seems ill considered.
Is there a way to change an event flow to an attribute flow?
