Is it possible to load a vamstory actions/director backup through triggers? Im trying to use the backups as a preset system (as recommended in the help section of the director plugin), but loading them all manually isnt really quick enough for the way I'm trying to implement it. Thanks for this awesome plugin btw!

Nope not really, I'd need a specific path trigger which is a bit annoying UX wise. You could if you wanted, use the normal preset system. It should work, but test it first. The help says that you can use this as a preset system, but the system was initially made to create automatic backup to prevent data loss on long scene/scripting modifications.
 
Thanks for the response. Yeah i kinda figured that's not what it was meant for. I'm not aware of the "normal preset system", could you point me in the direction of where to find it?

Any atom contains a "preset" tab. So in your empty for VAMStory, go to that tab, after you did all the things in there (data, settings etc) and then load that preset.
This should do it : )

Oh wow, cant believe i missed that lol. Thanks a bunch
 
So, finally took a dig into this suite of plugins. Really great for setting up UI layouts, and managing mode switches. I think I avoided checking it out because of the top billing as managing complex, branching stories. Little did I know.

Especially love the UI customization options, one of which I would love to be able to customize more: Toggle switches, the actual check box itself. It would be really nice to be able to scale the checkbox, independent of the element itself. I can sort of work around this by increasing the UI scale of an an individual UICustom atom, but this setting is global, and for a panel of buttons, it would scale all of them up.

I often like to use toggles, both for UX clarity, and logic reasons (rather than swapping overlapping buttons on/off).

Hey Metix!

I recommend using the VAMActionsCustom plugin (the one I recently added), and use the Toggle Button mode for your checkbox.
You the do backgrounds for off and on that are simply two checkboxes states. You can then size/place using the padding and text size as you wish. Just like I did in the demo : )
