How do I make a list showing events from cameras on the Live tab?
- Which functions of the plugin should I use?
- Can the list be shown on a channel which is maximized to a full screen?
I’d like it to look like the attached images below.
or Thank you
Hello,
I am wondering if you have tried normal Smart Client functionality. It is possible to see Event List on Live view without any integrations. Let me write down how to do it.
Start Smart Client and go to Setup mode.
Create a new view and drag and drop Alarm List to the one of the viewitems.
Select the Alarm List in the viewitem and go to properties. Select Event. If you want to see Alarm list, please select Alarm. Escape from Setup mode.
Then you will see all the events in Live view.
If you drag and drop Alarm preview to another viewitem, then you will see the event preview recording (if there is recording) when you click one of the events on the list.
Thank you for your reply, but it seems uncustomizable. We would like to display an image and several custom fields, which the function above doesn’t include. Do you have any ideas?
There are three options that you can consider.
- The first option is to make a special view and view item.
You will make your own view and view item to show the list.
- The second option is to use Overlay, please see this Active Elements Overlay sample.
As you can see, there is a button right top corner - when you click it the green square on the left top is visible/invisible. Instead of the button you can make your own usercontrol with the list.
- To utilize Sidepanel is the third option and would be a recommended way.
Sidepanelplugin class -
You could use the Sidepanel for the list, then you can use a camera view as it is for the ordinary camera Live view. There’s a sample called Smart Client ImageViewerAddOn and it is using Sidepanel -
