Hi, I`ve got a question about a Multipage Popup menu in Scenarist HDMV.
I`ve got 13 clips and I created with Designer a Popupmenu with two pages within, Menu1 with Buttons to get to Clip 1-6 and a Button to change to the next Menu2 for Clip 7-13 (and a button to go back to Menu1).
When the user presses the Popup-Menu-Button, the Popup-menu appears.

My problem: It is always the first Menu1, that appears. Even when the user watches Clip 7-13 and presses the popup menu button, it is not the Menu2 with that specific buttons.

Is it the wrong menu concept? How can I assgin clip 7-13 with the correct menu?

You need to put conditions if you want to open a specific page. There are several ways to obtain that... One can be to add a virtual page and put it on top of all the others page, with a virtual button set as auto-actioned, where you check which title was playing and then jump to the right page.

Wll, I already have a dummy button for other reasons (In effect menu),
I`m searching for the specific command line to jump to the menu 2.
I tried this one:
Created a GPR ("whichmenu"),

the menubutton1 (that goes to menu2) sets GPR e.g to "2"
in menu2 when a button is pressed. check, if GPR is "2" then ........

that is the part I don`t know what to do
("Setbuttonpage" is not the answer, then the correct menu appears, but that`s not O.K.. It has to appear when the popup menu button is pressed)

Use the PSR4. It tells which title is currently playing.

Move GPR"whichmenu", PSR4
If GPR"whichmenu" > "yourvalue" then SetButtonPage <page2>,<button1>
SetButtonPage <page1>, <button1>

Thank you very much.:D
I`m getting closer.
On my first test, it works.
But when I play e.g. Video 8 and I press the popup button the menu1 (wrong) appears for a few moments and then change to the correct menu2.
I will test it tomorrow and have a closer look.

Add a virtual page (with the virtual button) and put it at the head of your IG . Page0 is always the first one to be loaded.

Don`t know what I`m doing wrong. Just before menu 2 appears menu1 flashes a few moment.
