_SYSTEM

All the commands below are prefixed with the timeline position in milliseconds when the command should be executed. This timeline position can be negative, which means the command is executed prior application execution. All negative timeline events are executed at once, prior to the start of the application, in the order on the timeline, so more negative times come first.

Example:

60000;HIDE;1;

This will hide layer 1 after 60000 milliseconds, or better: at timeline position 60 seconds.

---

HIDE

_SYSTEM;HIDE;Layer number;

Hides the layer with the number Layer number, which makes the effect on that layer invisible. The RenderFrame/RenderFrameEx methods are not called by DemoGL when an effect is placed on a layer that is not visible, i.e. hidden.

Layer number

Specifies the number of the layer which should be hidden.
Type: long. Legal values are >=0.

---

SHOW

_SYSTEM;SHOW;Layer number;

Shows the (hidden) layer with the number Layer number, which makes the effect on that layer visible. The RenderFrame/RenderFrameEx methods are called by DemoGL when an effect is placed on a layer that is visible.

Layer number

Specifies the number of the layer which should be made visible.
Type: long. Legal values are >=0.

---

END

_SYSTEM;END;

Ends the system. DemoGL will end itself and return to the calling code in the application, i.e. the code that called DEMOGL_AppRun.

---

CAPTUREMOUSE

_SYSTEM;CAPTUREMOUSE;OnOff;

Enables or disables the capturing of the mouse by the DemoGL application window. When switch ON, DemoGL will receive mouse related messages which can then be used to control visual effects.

OnOff

Specifies if the mouse capturing should be ON or OFF.
Type: string. Legal values are ON and OFF.

---

SETTIME

_SYSTEM;SETTIME;Time;

Sets the current position on the timeline to Time milliseconds. This way you can start your application at any spot on the timeline.

Time

Specifies the new timespot on the timeline.
Type: integer. Specified in milliseconds.

---

RESTART

_SYSTEM;RESTART;Time;Re-initialize effects;Execute pre-Time effects;Kill sound;

Restarts the application and will restart it on timeline position Time. You can use this command to make looping applications, so you can easily transform a multipart demo into a screensaver.

Time

Specifies the timespot on the timeline where DemoGL should start the application again.
Type: integer. Specified in milliseconds.

Re-initialize effects

Specifies if all Init() methods of all effects should be called before the application is restarted (1) or not (0).
Type: integer. Legal values are 0 and 1.

Execute pre-Time effects

Specifies if all timeline events defined on the timeline with a timespot prior to Time should be executed (1) or not (0).
Type: integer. Legal values are 0 and 1.

Kill sound

Specifies if all the playing sound channels should be removed when the application restarts (1) or not (0). Remove always current playing soundchannels when you configurate RESTART to re-execute scriptcommands that load and play sound channels that are currently playing. (i.e.: always pass 1 for Kill sound, unless you want f.e. 1 music file playing looped while the application loops too but not in phase)
Type: integer. Legal values are 0 and 1.
