description:	Get Specific Cue Legend In A Cuelist
remarks:	How can I get second or third cue's legend in the cuelist?? I am trying to make a macro which show currently running cue's legend to the cuelist legend. For understanding. There is a cuelist which has “Colour” legend. It has 4 cues and each cue have “Red”, “Green”, “Blue” and “White” legend. What I want is when I fire the cuelist, cuelist legend change “Colour” to “Red”. Then “Red” to “Green”… like this.

get, cuelist, cue, legend

<step pause="0.01">ConnectedPlayback.Connect(Handles.GetHandle("PlaybackWindow",0,76))</step>
<step pause="0.01">Handles.SetSourceHandleFromHandle(Handles.GetHandle("PlaybackWindow",0,76))</step>
<step pause="0.01">Playbacks.FillCueLegend(
                     Handles.GetHandle("PlaybackWindow",0,76), 
                     Math.Cast.ToSingle(CueLists.LiveCueNumber), 
                     "Handles.PendingLegend"
                     )</step>
<step pause="0.01">Handles.SetLegend()</step>
<step pause="0.01">Handles.ClearSelection()</step>

Explanation

ConnectedPlayback.Connect connects to a specific playback
Handles.SetSourceHandleFromHandle selects this playback to set its legend
Playbacks.FillCueLegend gets a specific cue's legnd and feeds this into the property 'PendingLegend' to set it in the next step
Handles.SetLegend sets the cuelist's legend to the current cue's legend

If you didn't put cue legend of the cuelist, it will show default cuelist name.

You could use “CueLists.LiveCueNumber +1”, if you want to see next cue.
