Version 2.4

To enter the Executor keyword in the command line, use one of the options:

  • Press MA + X16 | Exec
  • Type Executor
  • Type the shortcut Ex

Description

The Executor keyword is an object keyword used as a control handle for other objects.

The default function for Executor objects is Select. This means that calling executors without any function specified selects the object assigned to the executor. This selection is now also controllable with the 100 mm fader section.

If you apply a function or reference a property not supported by the Executor object, the command will be passed on to its child: key, fader, or the object assigned to the executor.

Syntax

Executor [Executor_ID]

Select Page [Page_ID] Executor [Executor_ID]

Set Executor [Executor_ID] [Setting] = [Setting_Option]

For more information on setting the executor assignments using the interface, see the Assign Object to an Executor and the Executor Configurations.
