"Command" Mode in FixTime Script Elements

Hello Bernd,

It's been a while I haven't posted here. First i'd like to thank you, ProppFrexx is working fine for many years now!

I have a request, not sure if it's easy to implement. I would like to execute a shell command at a specific time in a FTE script. It is possible to do it in a script line) :
command_script.png
command_script.png (6.82 KiB) Viewed 7883 times

I would like to have the same option into the FTE script :
fte_script.png
fte_script.png (19.9 KiB) Viewed 7883 times

Thank you and have a good weekend

Quentin

The mode 'Command' is executed when the FTE resp.the script is loaded and NoT when the related script or FTE is played!
This is by design and had always been the case. And it is obvious, that that the loading time is way ahead of the play time.

If you want to execute a command at play time you should use a script-line event (click on the flash icon in the Options column) and use the 'On Track Played'.
