Priority not working on scenewindow?

vvvv gamma bug
1

When setting priority to the green scenewindow, i can’t manipulate xy with mouse.
The priority is always from the blackscenewindow.

Regarding the “Input Priority” pin: it’s only about the default devices on Stride’s InputMangager, for example

but that does not affect how the camera nodes work. So let’s forget about that hint I gave you in the chat.
The camera node retrieves its input source from the downstream connected window having focus. The relevant bits we find inside the RenderWindow node, however there seems to be no way to disable that part.
On the other hand, each of the windows outputs their input source and luckily for us the camera can be configured via two (!) optional pins, to use that input source. And it seems to do the right thing except for the mouse wheel - there it takes a short cut over above mentioned InputManager for some reason instead of taking the provided source. That we should fix on our end.

It’s tricky and we probably need to clean up this part further.
Just a heads-up: there are new ways of dealing with input sources in upcoming >= 7.0 preview 537

  • SceneWindow allows you to feed an InputSource - much like the Camera allows that already. But you could for example route no input source via NULL → FromT [Optional]. This way you can opt-out of input handling on a specific SceneWindow, which not only disables the Camera but all input handling of the window.
  • DeactivatedCamera allows you to turn a camera into a clone that is deactivated. This way you can feed the one camera to the one SceneWindow and the deativated one to the other one. Here we are only talking about disabling the camera. All the rest is still interactive. A Mouse node will react still (after activating the window).

Remarks:

  • also the approach mentioned by Elias is still valid
  • Mouse Wheel still is not handled properly yet

@Elias. Helas for me disabling the autofetch input leads to no window manipulable. :( Can you tell me how you have done ?

@gregsn downloaded last preview. NULL->FromT doesnt work netither for me, it desaffect completly the camera manipulation also on the two scenewindow

Deactivatedcamera works ! but kill the aspect ratio when the focus is no more on the deactivated scenewindow …

So here I am testing the approach with no InputSource for the deactivated SceneWindow.
