[Fix 11.4.0.3] Auto-Start on launch?

[Soundbloke]

Is there a cunning way that a cue could Auto Start as soon as (or shortly after) the program launches?

I'm thinking a couple of scenarios, one, for example is to pop up a Memo Cue to alert an operator of procedures, another would be to run an Image Cue to set a 'holding slide' on the screen.

Any thoughts? or is this one for the "Future Developments" forum?

You can do that by setting the cue's Activation Method to 'Auto-Start <n> seconds after cue file loaded'. See Auto-Starting a Cue File for more info.

Thanks Mike, I found out how to do it after playing around for a bit I came back to the forum to remove my post, but might as well leave it on in case others are looking for help with how to do this.

Okay, just to return to this subject, I could get it to do what I wanted by setting a Note Cue Auto Start | after cue file is loaded but I kept getting a "Validation Error" dialogue box saying "Auto Activate Cue must be blank" when I tried to set this activation method for other types of cues. I'm not sure what this means?
Is this expected behaviour? Bug??

Hmm. Seems like a bug. I'll look into it.

Fix ready.
