Table DAT export to Select channames

hello,

as far as i can tell I’ve got my table dat setup correctly as per the screenshots in the docs, but instead of using the value field as the value, it seems to be trying to use the value field as a source channel. can anyone clarify what is happening here and how to feed in the proper value?

As far as I know you only can export values from CHOPS (someone correct me if i’m wrong) and not from DATS. You can get the value with a python expression :

op(‘ActivePlayerPrefixes2’)[me.name,‘value’]

hi,

Thanks for your reply. You are able to export from a table dat with the proper table headers, here’s the documention i referenced [url]http://www.derivative.ca/wiki099/index.php?title=DAT_Export[/url]

the problem with scripting the field is a problem of architecture and maintainability. driving values from a central location is far easier to maintain and debug than trying to remember every field you’ve manually scripted.

Oh, I see. In the value column use ‘chan2’ instead of chan2

that’s perfect, thank you so much, been banging my head on it for a while.

I realize where i went wrong. I was originally referencing the old documentation [url]https://www.derivative.ca/wiki088/index.php?title=DAT_Export[/url] that doesn’t use the single quotes and overlooked the change, i found the new docs shortly before i linked it here.
