Variable as Cue

Variable cues dynamically change the value of variables directly from your timeline. Create one by dragging a variable from the Variable window to a timeline.

This is powerful as it lets you update variable values from inside WATCHOUT 7 itself.

A Variable cue is the only way to change the variable value inside WATCHOUT 7. This effect changes the value either by a tween track, or by an expression containing other variable(s).

Important Behavior Notes

• Variable cues execute only when you play through them in real-time
• For guaranteed variable updates, always play from a position slightly before the cue
• Multiple variable cues can create complex control networks throughout your production
