TMS trackable name length

March 19, 2012 - 7:43am #1

As of now there seems to be a 25 character limit on trackable names.

Is there a technical reason for this?
Is this something that is being worked on/can be changed?

My use case deals with cinema names and there are a few popular films that have long names e.g. The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel.

Ideally there shouldn't be a limit. Or the limit should be a lot larger like 128 or 256?

I do have a work around but it increases steps that I'd like to keep at a minimum.

So what I'm getting is that the TMS limits the names to 25 characters but the actually QCAR libraries can handle more?
If that's the case it should be an easy enough fix :)

That issue should be fixed. Target names are limited to 25 characters by the TMS, however.

In "unity-release-notes-1-5-10.pdf" it says:

Quote:

QCAR Unity Plugin v1.5.4 – Beta1:
Trackable names that are greater than 10 characters sometimes cause the app to freeze

But that entry doesn't show up in the final version. Is this issue not supposed to be fixed?

I'll inquire to determine where this is defined and why.
