OSC Int value to control blendmode

[vjmandala]

Hi all, I followed instructions at https://resolume.com/support/en/osc#sen ... o-resolume
to create a button to set blendmode. In TouchOSC editor I type in
/composition/selectedlayer/video/mixer/blendmode 5
or
/composition/selectedlayer/video/mixer/blendmode 5
Neither do anything. Prefs/OSC show OSC commands coming through but no worky.
fyi>> Type Tags 'F' and Values 'Float##'
Should that not sho 'i' and 'Int##'?
Cheers.

It shows what it receives. Looks like TouchOSC sends its values as floats (5.0) , not ints (5).

To get this to work, there would need to be a setting in TouchOSC that explicitly forces it to send the value as an int.

Thanks. I assumed as much, but cannot find anything. Even if I use: /composition/selectedlayer/video/mixer/blendmode "Alpha" it no worky

Though the odd thing is that to trigger a clip (with int value) the same button works fine!

note: In pic below it shows I have added /int to string, that was me experimenting post issue at hand..

You'll need to contact TouchOSC support on how to send an int from their software :/

eg Resolume output

Yes, I understand that. You're still sending a float message.

The type of the OSC message (float or int) is decided by the program that sends the OSC.

We don't make TouchOSC. The developer of TouchOSC can tell you how you can send an int from TouchOSC.

Or you could do the math and send 5 divided by the number of blends.

Will do, cheers

Nice suggestion, but no worky
I have sent email to TouchOSC, waiting for a response - will post that response here in case anyone else has this issue.

I just doublechecked, and sending a float between 0.0 and 1.0 definitely works to change the blend mode. If you like, you can post a screenshot of the message you are sending so I can take a look for you.
