Naming Storage Places for the HTTP Remote Control

I have Madrix set up for a permanent installation running effects in a venue. The HTTP remote control is set up for the client to change to different looks. I've given them a table describing what each numbered storage place does, but I'd prefer that each storage place had a name on the web interface so they didn't always have to reference the table. Is there a way to apply a name to the storage place in the HTML code?

In the index.html file in the public_html folder, I changed type="button">1</button> to type="button">SHOW LOOK</button>. When the interface page loads, you do see "SHOW LOOK" briefly in Place 1, but then it reverts to "1". Is there another place in the code I should be able to put the name?

Hi dan_StudioRRD,

If you set a "Storage Place Description" in MADRIX 5 (edit field right above the Storage Places), you can retrieve it with the following function:

Code: Select all

GetStoragePlaceDescription=S1P1
* In this example the description of Storage 1 Place 1 is retrieved.
* There is no "Set" function available to set the description via HTTP.

I hope this helps you!
