That function does nothing, nor has it ever worked for me in any script. Even if I try to do an engine.sequencer.GetTakeItem.ID after it creates the TakeItem, it still does not renumber. I clearly am missing something here.
'Get the TakeID of the retrieval sequencer item and return it for DataLinq Key setup.
if engine.Sequencer.GetTakeItemByID(999997, ref) then
jerseyKeyer = CType(ref, xpTakeItem)
else
MsgBox("Error: The Player Builder scene is not found at 999997. Load the Player Builder project and place the scene for your sport at 999997.",16,"Player Builder")
dim createGroup as xpTakeItemGroup
dim createProject as xpProject
dim createScene as xpScene
engine.Sequencer.GetGroupByName("TX - DO NOT DELETE", createGroup)
engine.GetProjectByName("Player Builder", createProject)
createProject.GetSceneByID(8675309, createScene)
engine.Sequencer.CreateTakeItem(createScene, createGroup, ref)
engine.Sequencer.GetTakeItemByID(8675309, ref)
ref.ID = 999997
jerseyKeyer = CType(ref, xpTakeItem)
end if

xpTakeItem.ID
Its a read and write property.
So this example would renumber the take ID.
dim take2 as xpTakeItem
engine.sequencer.getTakeItemByID(1000,take2)
take2.ID = 2000

Subject: Script Create Take Item
Hello,
I am trying to write a script to insert a scene by ID from a particular project into the sequencer and give it a take ID. So far, I can retrieve the project, get the scene, create a TakeItem and place it into a specific group, but I am unable to actually set the take ID number of the newly created item. Can anyone give some scripting guidance on how to create a take item to a specific ID? Thanks!
