Single Template for different Viz scenes

[ruimac]

In Template Wizard there is a variable named SCENE_NAME that contains the full path to the Viz scene associated with the template.
But I think it is a read only variable because, if I change it to point to a different Viz scene, pressing the Take/Load/Start button will not launch the scene pointed by the variable.
Is there any way to change dynamically the Viz scene that a Template will launch when the Take/Load/Start button is pressed?

If template Variants don't work for your use case, you could look at using Execution Logic in the template to send a viz command to the current channel which loads a custom scene on Start/Take.

Something like

<log role="note" name="note">My Execution Logic TAKE !</log>
    <env>
        <forked_exec>
            <entry name="execution_group"><var>channel</var></entry>
            <env>
                <viz>RENDERER SET_OBJECT <ref><var>element</var>/data/my_scene</ref></viz>
            </env>
        </forked_exec>
    </env>

where "my_scene" is the ControlObjectName of the template field holding your cusrom scene full path.

Thank you.
I will save this code to try it out.
