Repeater region 41

[suicidesspyder]

Is there a new set up guide for this yet. For some odd reason i cannot get multiple regions to work correctly. This is for example: I use 3 boxes total for healing and easier mount switching for druids. Ok i have box A box B and box C. I set up Box A as all other target sync works great on any toon. Then i make target 1 thats box B. When i put my curser in it on main it goes to box A on alts. Same thing with Box C i set it up as target 2 and C actually doesnt register on any box.
So linking as follows A-A, B-A, and C-?. Just curious what might be going on.

I'm not sure I follow. When you say "Box" is that a game window, a PC or a Repeater Region?

This is where you have me thinking that you're calling a Repeater Region a "box"


Same thing with Box C i set it up as target 2 and C actually doesnt register on any box
This is where you have me thinking I have no idea what you're calling a box because it sounds like "Box C" means a Repeater Region and "any box" means a game window.

So umm... can we try again but this time not use the word "box"? If it's a Repeater Region call it a Repeater Region, if it's a PC call it a PC, if it's a game window call it a game window. Something like that where I don't have to try to figure out what the words you're using mean.


If you have a Repeater Region and you set its Target to 2, mousing over the region is going to send the mouse to window #2. If you are entering a NAME for your Repeater Region, it is going to be attempting to transform the cursor position to match a Region with the same NAME in the Target window; if no Region (OR VIDEO FX SOURCE) with that NAME exists in the Target window, then it is the full window. There's no other special voodoo, if Target is 2 it's going to window 2. (On the current PC) And there's absolutely nothing special about having multiple Repeater Regions.

box sorry as in repeater regions i use these three. All other repeater region number 1 repeater region and number 2 repeater region. So in other words using target as all other both screens the repeater region works no issue curser shows up in both. Repeater region target 1 on main it shows in both but if i switch to an alt it does not show on any other toons repeater region target 1. Then on repeater region target 2 it doesnt work at all for any toons. So i use repeater region target all other and it works from mains screen but when i switch to an alt only shows on that toon none other. Sorry just tired lately and this is kind of a weird thing and i was getting frustrated as all get out.

I seem to recall having to set up for this in EVE as well. [edit] Or maybe I'm thinking about video feeds. When you add repeater regions/video feeds on a client, it only adds them for that specific client and you have to go into Edit mode and add them to each additional client's window. Basically have to set up something like this:

RR1 = repeater region 1, RR2 = repeater region 2, etc.
CL1 = client 1, CL2 = client 2, etc.

Main player window has RR1 showing CL2, RR2 showing CL3, RR3 showing CL4
CL2 player window has RR1 showing CL1, RR2 showing CL3, RR3 showing CL4
CL3 player window has RR1 showing CL1, RR2 showing CL2, RR3 showing CL4
CL4 player window has RR1 showing CL1, RR2 showing CL2, RR3 showing CL3

Basically, had to dupe the regions onto each client that I wanted to be able to swap to and see the others from.

Lax can correct me if I'm wrong, as it has been a while since I did this. The more I think about it, I'm probably thinking of video feeds, though similar concepts do apply with regards to the "sequence gaps" for each client, I believe.

A Repeater Region is a one-directional source. It only works from that particular window. If you want it to work from another window, you need another one in that window.
