TrackJump Layer

The TrackJump layer allows you to automatically jump between tracks. This can be useful in situations where you have a permanent or semi-permanent fixed installation that needs to continue running all day, switching from one track to the next or jumping between sections within the same track.

This layer works as follows: whenever the play cursor enters the extent of the layer and the cursor continues to move forward (and thus does not stop), Designer will jump to the track and section specified in the TrackJump layer and perform the specified action.

TrackJump Layer Properties

Track

This specifies which track should jump to. If set to None or left empty, no track jump is issued and stays in the same track.

Section

This specifies which section number should jump to; 0 means jump to the first section.

Play mode

This specifies the transport control mode that should enter when jumping to its destination. The options to choose from are stop, play, play-to-end-of-section, and loop section.
