Touchscreen: Create interface for scheduling timelines, etc.

Hi there,

I have basic ETC Mosaic touchscreen experience such as using buttons to instantly trigger timelines or set various parameters. Now I want to use the touchscreen to allow the client to schedule a set of event specific timelines, e.g. there are a couple of event timelines I trigger from a lua script that randomly picks from 3 timelines, e.g. timeline "birthday 1", timeline "birthday 2", and timeline "birthday 3".

How can create an interface to allow the client to pick a future start and end date which then triggers a specific lua script or any event for that matter?

  • Slider won't work (percent or 8 bit only).
  • Thought I could probably use 3 keypads on the interface page, one for day, month, and year but it seems quite clumsy.
  • Maybe creating several buttons for "year" (e.g. 10 buttons starting with 2026), "month" (12 buttons), and "day" (31 buttons) for each event and reading out their states from triggers. A bit clumsy as well...

Are there any specific manuals or templates for this kind of interactive scheduling interface?

Thank you for your help in advance!

Erwin
