Using touch event to navigate through image/video play file

Hi there,

I'm creating a master-interface, from which i can play lots of files. 

The interface is created like this:

First menu:

Showcases 1
Showcases 2

Then i click Showcases 1 and these things are presented:

Football
Retail
Information
Etc.

Then i click Information (fx) and from there i can click on a certain showcase, to present a slideshow on my slave-player.

The "issue" is, that it's a 3 layer interface, where some of the layers has up to 8 options, which means i have to create hundreds of touch events to be able to navigate from one showcase to another -- i want the showcase to be "clicked" as a button when selected, which means i have to change state on the interface whenever choosing a new showcase. 

To make this easier, i tried to create some conditional targeting, making the touch event send a command whenever i click on a showcase - making it much easier and simpler to create. I can't make it work however... 

Does anyone know what i'm supposed to send along the touch event to make it play a certain file in the video/image play file? :D

Best regards, Viktor

  You can use a zone message to trigger a playfile widget.  You can transition from a video or static image or event handler into the playfile widget.. In this pic below, I'm using zone messages with wild card to go from event handler to playfile video. I'm also going from the playfile video to itself. This allows you to transition from any video to any other video. 

   

  If this isn't working for you, we'd need to see the brightauthor project file itself to see what else is going on.
