    I?m trying to implement the "In-built System IO" example in the PICED help system for a Scene Editor where, as you scroll through the components in a scene, the name of the group address is displayed.

    The PICED help talks about an In-Built System IO Variable called ?Scene Component Name?. I can?t find this variable anywhere; it doesn?t appear when I place a tool with category of ?Scenes?. Would I be right in thinking that this variable isn?t supported by the B&W C-Touch? Does anyone of a workaround or other way to obtain the name of the groups address?

    Scene Component Names in B&W C-Touch

    Hi Mgedrych,

    You are correct; Group Names are not stored in the B&W C-Touch as they chew up too much project space. It will only display the group number.
    There are no sensible work arounds i can think of, only a huge steaming pile of logic...

    Cheers,
    Mark.
