===Remote Layout Objects===

Layout objects are the displays and interfaces that can be placed into a remote page; they are used in the ''[[commands:remote_node_commands:node_addpage]]'' command and are a comma-separated list of parameters - the first being the type of layout object, and the following defining its function.

There are three chat interfaces:

  * ''chatfixed, #<flowposition>/@<name>, <description>'' - A chat interface for a particular channel, either given by its name with an ''@'' prefix, or with a ''#'' prefix relating to the chat channel of a group at a particular point in the flow - flow position is a number that can be discovered by running ''[[commands:flow_commands:flow_overview]]''
  * ''chatcontrol, <flowposition>, <description>'' - a chat interface for the chat channel of the group at a particular point in the show flow ((Does not allow the use of other chat channels)); additionally, it allows the user to edit the group's size, colour, and time. This is designed for FoH use.
  * ''chatselect, <minposition>, <maxposition>, <description>'' - similar to ''chatcontrol'', but also allows the users to scroll between the channels of groups in the flow in a range defined by the min and max position. This is designed for FoH use.

And several other options:

  * ''title, <text>'' - a static text label, the text given by that parameter.
  * ''timer, <flow postion>'' - a display giving arrival countdowns for the next three groups arriving at a particular point in the show flow - flow position is a number that can be discovered by running ''[[commands:flow_commands:flow_overview]]''
  * ''keypad, <page>, <offset>'' - a four-button 2x2 keypad; these will be four buttons from the button pages already defined, from a given page and starting at the offset given - they must be sequential.
  * ''picture, <name>'' - a picture, using the name defined when the picture was downloaded using the ''[[commands:remote_node_commands:node_addimage]]'' - the ''blob'' functionality will be implemented if present
  * ''imagebutton, <name>, <page>, <offset>'' - implements a single button from the button pages already defined, from a given page and at the offset given. Rather than using the button's text, the named image is used. Blobs are not implemented.

Finally, this feature is in Beta:

  * ''camera,<name>,<scale>,<url>'' - displays the stream from an IP video source (normally a camera). The name is arbitrary and displayed below the feed; scale can be used to fit the feed to the display as needed; the url is the URL of the stream, e.g: ''http://pendelcam.kip.uni-heidelberg.de/mjpg/video.mjpg'' could be used for testing.
