I wrapped it into a namespace with some get/set helper functions.

namespace PersistentData { //The data object. This will be overwritten by the onControl callback of the restorer reg _persistentData = {}; /*This panel will restore the storage object in its control callback. If the value is not an object, it won't do anything but use the given storage variable as value*/ const var pnlDataRestorer = Content.addPanel("pnlDataRestorer", 0, 0); pnlDataRestorer.set("saveInPreset", true); pnlDataRestorer.set("visible", false); pnlDataRestorer.setControlCallback(onpnlDataRestorerControl); inline function onpnlDataRestorerControl(component, value) { // Check if the panel's value is an object // If not, set the value to the storage object if (typeof(value) == "object") _persistentData = value; //Copy the object from the panel to the storage object else component.setValue(_persistentData); //Initialize the restorer }; inline function set(id, value) { _persistentData[id] = value; pnlDataRestorer.setValue(_persistentData); } inline function get(id) { return _persistentData[id]; } }

@ustk Great, I will check this out, but it looks like I could use this, thank a lot! 🍺👍

@d-healey Omg, You're A Genius David <3
Thanks a Ton

@Natanr Not sure what you mean. In the image above it's just a C major chord, so the intervals would be 0, 4, and 7.

@dustbro my brain wont retain stuff from 10 mins ago... so your doing OK there.

@dustbro Awesome Thanks A Ton 👏

@ulrik Ok, I found a glitch
When shift + click I should receive a value saying which area/slice, the marker is closest to, the value is based on the radius and the angle, from which it then calculates the length between each slice and the marker, then it compares the 5 lengths and decide which is the shortest (this are quiet heavy calculations, maybe that's why the glitch?)

I used Console.print and found that 95% of the clicks I got the right value but 5% I got nothing.
So there's something fishy happening in my code.

If anyone is reading the code, look for the line

//Console.print("area:"+area+" slice:"+slice);

it's around line 220

This is because the i variable is in fact a global variable, because inline functions do not have a scope for default variables.

In order to fix it, just create a local variable before using the loop:

inline function one() { local i = 0; for (i = 0; i < 20; i++) { two(); } } inline function two() { local i = 0; for (i = 0; i < 10; i++) { Console.print(i); } }

Yes this is one of the most annoying inconsistencies, but I can't change it without breaking every single use of the timers.

The reason for it was that I created the global timer first and didn't bother about milliseconds as unit, but the UI timer object is just a wrapper around a JUCE class which uses milliseconds as unit.

@nodeToVst

You can use the Expansions system to provide additional sample content (sample maps + samples) to your plugin. This is how PercX works but it does it all from within the VST. You'd need to build a separate installer to place the content in the right location on your user's system and you'd need to design your plugin to make use of the expansions.

Yeah this example (built on your snippet) demonstrates the issue. Clicking on a menu item opens the popup but all I want is to trigger the callback. The work-around obviously is to not store the menu items in the panel, but this is the perfect place for them :)

nope, still not allocating :)

It's known at the compilation that the counter will be needed so it's allocated during that phase.

@toxonic sliderpack.changed()

yes, basically it's just a way of displaying on the UI when the docs are being fetched from the server. Otherwise people will see an empty page for 5 seconds and think it's broken.

I don't think it's hooked up to the HISE floating tile yet (somebody's using it in his C++ project...)

@toxonic
okay, i managed it to open a snippet, posted in another thread and got it going now - i didn't know where to start and didn't know about the "Engine.createDspNetwork()" function to call.
sorry, very beginner... ;-)

thank you much, that did the trick! :-)
