OnSystemEvent Matching GigLoaded Not Allowed In Global Rackspace

I’m trying to use “OnSystemEvent Matching GigLoaded” in order to set a boolean variable in the global rackspace. My global rackspace script handles OnWidgetChanged events but the trouble is when the gig loads the code is executing in OnWidgetChanged and I don’t want that code to execute while the gig is loading and setting the initial widget values.

I am hoping to use a boolean variable, isGigLoaded, which is initially set to false. Then, do not execute the code in OnWidgetChanged until the GigLoaded system event is received and the isGigLoaded boolean is set to true.

Please advise if this approach is possible or if there is an alternative implementation.

You may try this. I put it in my global rackspace. Basically I look for loaded as part of a conditional for widget change to work.

Var
   aa : Widget
   bb : Widget
   cc : Widget
   stat: boolean
   filename: String = "racks.txt"
   rs: String
   var Loaded : boolean
   
   
initialization
   rs = LoadStringFromTextFile(filename)
   Print("rackspace number=" + rs)
   SwitchToRackspace(StringToInt(rs),1)
End
    
// The below will not execute until the Entire Gig is loaded


On WidgetValueChanged(newValue : double) from aa
    if newValue==1 and Loaded then 
        SwitchToRackspace(2, 1)
        stat = SaveStringToTextFile(filename,"2")
    End
End

On WidgetValueChanged(newValue : double) from bb
//Print ("Widget value bb changed. Newvalue is " + newValue)
    if newValue==1 and Loaded then 
        SwitchToRackspace(1, 1) 
        stat =SaveStringToTextFile(filename,"1")
    End
End

On WidgetValueChanged(newValue : double) from cc
//Print ("Widget value cc changed. Newvalue is " + newValue)
    if newValue==1 and Loaded then 
        SwitchToRackspace(0, 1) 
        stat =SaveStringToTextFile(filename,"0")
    End
End



On SystemEvent Matching GigLoaded 
Loaded = True

Print ("Gig Loaded " + Loaded)

End

Here is the gig file.

Have a look here: Scriptlet: Arturia KeyLab MkII LED control - #14 by tripleB

I’ve implemented something similar here for my scriptlets :wink:

It is similar to what SteveC showed above

It is allowed in Gig Performer 5
