[Closed] Catching Object renames

Feb 23, 2012 12:46 pm

I am trying to catch any camera renaming made by the user, I am currently using a When construct

when names cameras change id:#CamNameChange do getcams()

This provides me with the event I need to register the new camera name but I also need to register it’s old name. What would be the best way to achieve this?

Thanks,

Could you extend the camera object with a custom oldName attribute into which you can put the current name? When the event is called you can then query the oldName attribute and do what you need with it before updating it to the new name.

Thanks, good idea. Have stored the camera names in the setAppData this seems to work quite well with minimal fuss.

Cheers.
