typeof(myVar) == "string"

@VirtualVirgin said in Quick coding question: Is there a way to check if a variable is a string?:

I would like to make an inline function that can accept either an integer or a string as one of the arguments,

I would try to avoid this. I've started using the type safety stuff in HISE for everything lately and it prevents lots of little type related bugs I used to run into, before they can happen. But to use it you need to allow only one data type possibility per parameter/return value.

If you want to have one or the other I would create two functions, or turn your strings into numbers with parseInt/parseFloat.

@d-healey Thank you so much, this has been a huge help. I’ll keep learning so that I can become someone who helps others someday as well.

Im marking this as solved but im still not sure what the cause of the problem in the first place even was. Even tho I got it working, im gonna leave this up in case anybody wants to enlighten me.

Thanks!

@d-healey That's the vid that got me started on broadcasters, and I'm very appreciative of it! So thanks!

@clevername27 No problem! 🙏

@Chazrox Excellent. good job bro.

@StephanS said in Help With SliderPack and CC Control:

how can it work that the slider states stay at the values i selected before and stays in position to each other when i control it via CC.

This I don't know, because if you are using the current CC value as the starting point, then it's going to be constantly changing.

I would forget about the sliderpack for now. Just add two knobs to your UI and see if you can get one knob to control the other in the way you want. Once you have that working you can move to the sliderpack version.

Hi David,

thank you very much for your help.
I now have almost everything as it should be. Unfortunately, I can't manage one function. When I move a slider in the pack, the value is passed on to the slider but this must then be saved again. Could you have a look at the snippet?
And please don't judge me for the horrible code ;)

@Orvillain said in Accessing midi processor name from within connected script:

I'm fairly confident this will enable me to have my generic script,

That's how I do it

@d-healey

Worked!
Great, thanks David.

Answer:

const var ScriptnodeSynthesiser1 = Synth.getAudioSampleProcessor("Scriptnode Synthesiser1"); inline function onButton1Control(component, value) { if (!value) return; FileSystem.browse(FileSystem.getFolder(FileSystem.Downloads), false, "*.wav", function(file) { if (!isDefined(file) || !file.isFile()) return; ScriptnodeSynthesiser1.setFile(file.toString(file.FullPath)); }); }; Content.getComponent("Button1").setControlCallback(onButton1Control);

@d-healey said in Is there a method to rotate a path?:

@VirtualVirgin Instead of making a function to rotate a path, why not make a function to create a rotated path. You can pass in the data you would have used to create the initial path.

So based on your suggestion I came up with this and it seems to work:

inline function createRotatedPath(pathArray, angle, area) { local rad = Math.toRadians(angle); local cosA = Math.cos(rad); local sinA = Math.sin(rad); local path = Content.createPath(); local rotationCenterX = area[0] + (area[2] * 0.5); local rotationCenterY = area[1] + (area[3] * 0.5); for (i = 0; i < pathArray.length; i++) { local x = pathArray[i][0]; local y = pathArray[i][1]; local newX = (x - rotationCenterX) * cosA - (y - rotationCenterY) * sinA + rotationCenterX; local newY = (x - rotationCenterX) * sinA + (y - rotationCenterY) * cosA + rotationCenterY; if (i == 0) path.startNewSubPath(newX, newY); else path.lineTo(newX, newY); } path.closeSubPath(); return path; }

The pathArray is a 2D array of x,y points
i.e.
[[x,y],[x,y] etc..]

@Chazrox said in New Build, All Meters Crashed. How?:

this commit works.

Good, now find the first commit that doesn't work :)

@ustk Oh that makes sense! And that method is a lot easier than what I was doing.

I also noticed that drawDragHandle's colour properties are all empty. So I've made a modification that passes the filtergraph to the laf function so we can grab its colours. I hope this is the correct way to do this.

Can do

@Christoph-Hart cheers, mate.

It's used for AAX plugins

Aha that's good to know

@d-healey Sorry, mate - I haven't used Expansions.
