# CrossingDirection

Media Server only generates an alert when an object crosses the tripwire in the specified direction:

- `Any` - any direction
- `LeftToRight`
- `RightToLeft`

Be aware that "left" and "right" do not always correspond to an object's position in the scene.

To determine which side of the tripwire is the "left" and which side is the "right", imagine standing on the point `xi,yi` and looking towards the point `x(i+1),y(i+1)`, where `i` to `i+1` is the section of the tripwire that is crossed.

Type: | String
Default: | Any
