Hi,

All the other options are listed here: https://aximmetry.com/learn/tutorials/for-content-creators/special-compound-pin-collector/#special-compound-pin-collector  ($SelSub and $Enum are not yet on this list)

Also, there are Dashboard modules that can assist in how the pins work:

Warmest regards,

Hi.

I'm using $Enum as well to generate dropdown menus.
But what exactly does $SelSub do?

Cheers.

Eric.

Hi Eric,

Selector Pin ($SelSub) is a very special pin name that only works with compounds. It doesn't work with Pin Collectors, however, you can add compounds to Control Boards just as you can add Pin Collectors to it.

Selector pins make it possible to select between nodes within the compound and edit their input pin values.

For example, in this compound, we can select between the 3 nodes (Copy Scalar, Keyer_CleanPlateGenerator, and Pin Collector) using the Name pin:

The compound contains the 3 nodes that we can select from:

For all this to work, the Selector pin must be named the following way.
First, it has to start with $SelSub. Then the name of the pin. And then the names of the nodes inside the compound.
In this example, the pin name is: $SelSub,Name,Copy Scalar,Keyer_CleanPlateGenerator,Pin Collector

Famously, the same system is used when selecting between keyers in the camera compound's control board.

Warmest regards,
