Cant get the ShortCut property from the camera Item.

0053X00000Ax0Q4QAJ · August 26, 2020, 11:58am

Hi i have set the “Shortcut” property from the Camera → Client Tab.

saved it.

In my plugin user control when using an ItemPickerForm with Kind.Camera.

I select the camera, but there is not “ShortCut” in the Item.Properties[“ShortCut”] (lots of other things).

tried to debug the VideoViewer sample found in the SDK and there i can see the “ShortCut” after selecting the same camera as my proj.

is this a security related?

any settings i missed maybe?

Thank you,

The properties for an item is different in each environment.

Using the ConfigDump I could see that the ShortCut property is available in a Smart Client plugin and is not available in a Management Client plugin.

A possible workaround if you want the property on Management Client is to read it using the Configuration API.

If I am on the right track and you would like to get a tip on how to use the Configuration API in a Management Client plugin let me know..

While thinking how to best answer I got to think about this knowledge base article:

Please see the text in the Configuration API section.

Do not hesitate to ask for further guidance when having had a first glance at the recommended samples..
