You only have to learn a single installer platform instead of learning a separate one for each OS. It will also look more similar on each system so a user moving from Windows to Mac for example will get a similar experience on both.
@Christoph-Hart Any chance we can dig up this old thread?
If isPluginParameter is enabled on a button or combo, AAX will initialize to 0 no matter what the defaultValue is set to. Disabling isPluginParameter initializes to the proper value.
This only affects AAX. Other formats work properly.
