Image positioning

[Nicko]

Is it possible to do real time positioning of images (from the editor) whilst the image is playing (ie being projected)? I can't seem to be able to do this as the projected image doesn't move even though the editor window image does.
I was recently trying to position a projected clock face projected onto scene painted clock background which required very accurate positioning. Very difficult to do off line.

Using latest version 11.2.5

Managed to resolve this! Discovered that the 'preview on output screen' button only works when the image is not already playing.... When the image is already playing the button is greyed out and, although you can move the image in the editor, it doesn't alter the output.

I have the same issue but can't find the 'preview on output screen' button

I think it was only implemented in 11.2.5? Are you on this version?

That's correct. This was added in 11.2.5.

Yes, unfortunately the xVideo library does not support resizing the image while it is playing, so SCS has to set the required size before initiating 'play'.

I was on 11.2.4, all sorted now, cheers
