Getting layout and selected camera(s) FQID from VideoWallMonitor.

I have now setup a Smart Wall in Milestone XProtect Smart Client with three monitors.

So far I have developed a program to set the layout and camera to be displayed on targeted screen of the layout by sending the command using

EnvironmentManager.Instance.SendMessage(…, …);

Now that I want to do it on the other way, to retrieve the current configuration on the monitor(s) including type of layout and camera on display of each of the screen of the layout.

What is the way of doing it?

Best regards,

There is no way to read the current content of the Smart Wall.

It is possible to listen in on Smart Wall updates and in that way gain awareness what the current content might be.

Explore the Video Wall Controller sample, notice how every message on the listener contains a viewitems XML.
