Defining Softbuttons Yourself

A new feature of MOBOTIX M1 since Release 1.8 allows the definition of customized buttons beside the menus Live Menü, the Event Player, and the Multiview Menü.

The buttons are linked to predefined functions to control the camera, following links etc.

The softbuttons are defined by the administrator on Softbuttons Menue. The menu is still in an early version, so some input has to be done by typing in arguments.

The following table will give you a short explanation for using this menu:

Position Integer Numbers describe the position of the button in the menu from top to the bottom. If the number is negative the order is reversed. Zero is not allowed. Every entry must have an unique number.
Name An unique (and short) name for the button to label it.
Color A selection of colors to define the shape of the button.
Function The function that will be executed when the button is pressed.
Parameter Some functions need parameters that are displayed when selecting a function. You may want to edit the values next to the equal sign. Parameters are separated by blanks.
Options Deselecting Active will keep the definition inside the menu but will not display the button in the menus.
Selecting Delete will mark the entry for deletion.

You can load a set of predefined softbuttons by selecting Load Default Buttons in the Softbuttons Menu.

Note:

All softbuttons defined before will be overwritten.
