Modify a marker using a client side script

I tried to modify a marker using a client side script but it doesn't seem to work.
On the client side, UI.Hud3dMarkers = "something" seems to have no effect.
Does anyone know how to do it?

i don't know why but you can't modify the UI from the client side script, even BigMessage and stuff like that can't be modified
for dynamic markers i suggest looking into the realm script or my
speedball2 beta version

small tutorial:
- create the hud3dmarker
Code: Select all
UI.Hud3dMarkers = """<marker pos="1 2 3" manialinkframeid="Marker_Frame"/>"""
- create the markers layer
Code: Select all
declare MarkersLayer <=> UIManager.UILayerCreate();
MarkersLayer.Type = CUILayer::EUILayerType::Markers;
UIManager.UIAll.UILayers.add(MarkersLayer);
- create the manialink for markers layer and modify the marker itself with it
Code: Select all
<frame id="Marker_Frame" hidden="1">
<label id="Label"/>
</frame>
<script><!--
main() {
declare Label <=> (Page.GetFirstChild("Label") as CMlLabel);
Label.Value = "Marker text";
}
--></script>

With this method, the markers don't look like the default markers.
EDIT: Does Anyone know the style used by default markers?

i tried to find the style representing the default markers.. but couldn't find the correct one :/
in speedball i added a quad with bgcolor="aaa6"

this isn't exactly about the initial topic but still concerning Hud3dMarkers:
1. may it be possible to assign a specific manialinkframe in a Markers ManialinkPage to multiple Hud3dMarkers? that would be great as a mode may need a variable number of markers with the same style
2. could a frame with hidden="1" set hidden automatically again after its Hud3dMarker has been removed please? right now the frame is hidden until an according marker is set, then it's visible - good, but it stays visible when the marker isn't set anymore leading to a manialink control somewhere on the screen :/
3. it would be great if we could use multiple ::Markers UIlayers, because now only a single one is working
Thanks in advance!
