Wondering if anyone has done this and how they did it.
With a perspective session running displayed on big screen TV I would like to be able to use a tablet to select that session and force it to a different view. Generally what I was thinking was to have a tag that the TV session is looking at and change that tag value from a menu on the tablet session to trigger the TV session to change view.
system.util.sendMessage() should work.
I think I would need to get the Session.id from the TV session to make sure the correct session gets changed. If I have multiple TV sessions running I want to be able to change a specific one.
If you can distinguish by IP address, then system.perspective.getSessionInfo() gives you everything you need, both for your remote table of choices, and the ID needed for the action.
I was just looking at that in the manual and thinking the same.
Display IP on the monitor, use session info to build dropdown on tablet with ID/IP - select IP and new view to display and send message / message handler to change view.
