Starting OBS with a particular dockset

[mccombey]

Hi,

Many OBS settings can be activated using a switch (e.g. --scene: "scene_name") in the shortcut target. Does anything like this exist for jrDockie so a particular dockset is activated when OBS starts? I work at an organisation where every user has their own settings but I'd like them to have a particular arrangement when OBS starts.

Hey Steve. It's a convincing usecase scenario -- let me see what I can do. I wonder if there is a way for me to catch commandline arguments at launch.

I've tried the websocket route instead but not getting any success... this was my code...

await obs.call( "CallVendorRequest", {
                            vendorName: "JrDockie",
                            requestType: "LoadDockset",
                            requestData: {
                                             filename: "C:/Users/Public..."
                                         }
                                     } );

Console is telling me the vendor doesn't exist. Any ideas? All other websocket commands work.

I worked it out. It should be vendorName: "jrDockie" with a lowercase j.

Maybe the following should be ammended, which has a capital J.

Great work -- and thank you for pointing out the error in my obs forum post -- much appreciated.
