      Maybe this has been discussed but i can’t find it. I’m guessing this field can be used to overwrite the settings you have in the “PinUp Player Displays”? How is the custompos configured? What does each comma separated space mean?

       

      Thanks

        It’s used to repurpose any PuP screen, by using another PuP screen’s “default” size and position as a refernce and starting point.

        CustomPos entries are:

        Reference Screen, x position %, y position %, x size %, y size %

        2, 20,10,50,40

        If I used this with screen 7, it would position itself using screens 2’s position as a starting point, and its “default” size as a reference in terms of what 100% will be in pixels. Screen 7 will be 50% of the width, and 40% of the height of screen 2.

         

        This allows other screens to be setup using the Backglass and Topper as a reference, without needing to worry about what the default size and position is of the screen being used, as everyone “should” have their backglass and Topper correctly setup.

          Thanks.

          I can’t seem to get it to work. For example, i made a change to go from screen 2 (backglass) to screen 0 (topper) and it didn’t move to the topper screen. Should it have? I was trying to make a drastic change just to see how those values works.

            No it won’t work, because you have the Topper screen set to off in the pup-pack, which overrides default “state”. So the reference of 0 won’t display anything.

              Bad example. Sorry about that.

              I did try 2,1,1,1,1 and no change on Transformers and the same results. Nothing i put in seems to change size and location.

                Your picture shows it changing something. :)

                Try “real values”, as using only 0’s and 1’s won’t work right for screen size. Try using some of my values i already had and adjust them a little bit bigger and smaller at first to see what they do.

                Make sure you save as well.

                  I’m missing something. I tried the original values, low values and half of original values. Nothing changes size and location. The screen only goes to the setting that was configured in the “PinUP Player Displays”.

                    What are you trying this with? PuP-Packs with tables? If you edit a table’s pup-pack, then changing those values and then saving the pack, and then running the table/pack should change something.

                    Make sure you completely CLOSE VPX so that PuP is completely closed between each adjustment.

                      I’m trying to apply the transformers and masters of the universe pup-pack to the their tables. The custompos is not moving screens to their configured locations. I have been saving pup config and then reopening vpx.

                      Thanks

                        I tried to re-install and leave all the defaults alone. I still can’t get screens to adjust. I have only my back glass and topper enabled in the global settings.

                          No matter what is in the CustomPos field, it does not honor the settings. Do you have any other ideas?

                          Thanks

                            Don’t know what else to recommend. If the table’s are running correctly with my CustomPos, then its not an issue of pup not running right,

                            There must be something missing or you are either not saving correctly…or editing the wrong pack. Don’t know what else i can see.

                              Using the values that are configured in the download don’t work either. The videos will only play on the global setting for the original screen. So a video that is using other/topper but has a custompos to use reference screen of back glass with custom sizes, will only play on the topper screen with the defaul topper size.

                                My guess is you may not have updated Pinup System correctly somehow, OR you have something set to Run as Admin that shouldn’t be set. The only file in PinupSystem folder set to Run as Admin can be pinupmenu.exe, nothing else.

                                  This is driving me crazy. I don’t have any extras files set to run as admin. The videos play at the correct time and play on the correct screen. However, they don’t play where CustomPos is telling them too.

                                    I have exactly the same problem. No custom positions only the default .

                                      possible you guys are using decimals with a comma instead of a ‘.’ ?  try using only whole numbers and see if is works?  decimals must be ‘.’

                                        ….true, possible “locale” or keyboard language issue?

                                          Whole numbers did not make a difference.
