How do I trigger a template event when a value matches?
Create a Custom Event rule.
Before you start
Open the intended collection and prepare sample content for a rehearsal. Confirm the controls are available in your installed version.
Where to find it
Motion Template Properties Custom Event > Add.
Steps
- Select the event and data field.
- Choose Text, Whole number or Decimal number.
- Set the comparison and expected value, then save.
- Test a nonmatch, then a match in rehearsal.
Check the result
The template event runs when its condition first matches.
Helpful information
Invalid values skip the affected rule while the template continues playing.
If something is wrong
Check available fields, binding, data type and comparison value.
