Hello!
We have a ‘production’ mAirList that is used to generate schedules and fun stuff the presenters do. We also use it to save cart-walls to a folder. Unfortunatly, for the ‘on-air’ studio to see these cart-walls, we have to exit mAirList and re-load it again.
Is it possible to get a ‘REFRESH CARTWALL FAVOURITES’ command or similar that we can schedule?
Hi,
I have a need for the same command.
We’ve developed a fair bit of code that limits Cartwall page naming / renaming / deleting to some custom Powershell dialogs, so we can keep users away from the file system. That’s now working, but the Favorites list doesn’t update even after the actual file folder contents have changed. As “srobinson” laments, the only way out is a full restart of mAirList. (BTW - if you do happen to click on the old name in the Favorites, mAirList re-writes a file in the old name. So then you have both old and new names on the next re-start!!
So please, could we have an ICartwall method like RefreshFavorites that would re-scan the nominated folder? Or as suggested below a command that would do the same?
Thanks,
Greg
It’s on the wishlist as “refresh on dropdown”.
Snapshot 3909 has a new auto-refresh option; Favorites will be re-read each time you click the menu.
Torben - That works perfectly, thank you.
If you delete a cartwall item that’s open, it doesn’t error or close or anything similar. I can’t really think of a way to handle that in mAirList so seems reasonable to stay like that, but it all works nicely.
Thanks again!
