The big bug tier list
-
Alright guys, let's get this over with. Rules:
- One post per bug
- bug must be published as github issue
- posts that get no upvote are deleted after some time so that we can ensure that it's only the heavy hitters in this topic.
- upvote the bug you want to see fixed
- when it's fixed I'll delete the post.
- when the topic is empty I'll get back to adding email support to HISE as everybody requested years ago.
-
I'll start by posting my [Engine] bugs, which are all breaking bugs (or at least I thought so at the time of posting).
[ScriptNode/Engine] Control.smoothed_parameter nodes do not have continuous SmothingTime · Issue #679 · christophhart/HISE
If you want to be changing the smoothing time dynamically, there's currently no way to get a linear response in ScriptNode. You can use the smoother node to smooth out the signal, but it's a low pass response, not linear. The smoothed_pa...

Low prio but still a broken network
[Engine] Why would some ScriptNode parameters lose stepsize and skew properties? · Issue #613 · christophhart/HISE

Also kinda low prio, there's a niche usecase for multichannel smoothing that can be worked around (unless you require dynamic smoothing time), but it's still a bugged node.

This one is super funny (and annoying if you don't know it's there)
[Engine] Scriptnode math.pi node is multiplied by 2 by default unless the parameter is touched · Issue #602 · christophhart/HISE
2636d04 macOS 14.5 Upon loading the node, it's outputting pi*2 by default unless the parameter gets touched. I'm converting 40 degrees to radians in this case. Also, probably a good idea to add deg2rad and rad2deg to the converted node.

This one is about having panel + combobox functionality by dropping down with a left click, but it doesn't work (right click dropdown mode works fine).

Not so funny one. Doesn't quite blow up here, the signal is below audible range, but the network just dies (no output) and HISE must be restarted.
[Engine] How To Blow Up Your System: Part 2 · Issue #536 · christophhart/HISE
So I was putting together a snippet for null-testing biquad vs svf-eq for our filter talk. It works as it should, just turn on the inv node. But here's the kicker. If you click that exclamation mark and adjust the ranges for the frequenc...

This is annoying for anyone who doesn't read the docs THOROUGHLY or read the forum properly, but the workaround is easy: simply enable the queue. Perhaps it should be enabled by default for mouse broadcasters that aren't realtime?

Not being able to set the mouse sensitivity property for the built in sliders for this long... So either be happy with the HISE speed on shift or go and make a panel, which gets fun if you need MIDI mapping and DAW automation.

Better check your text on all systems thoroughly!
There's a title that I used a font for, which I had to break into two separate graphics calls to manually adjust kerning that way.

Respectfully, I don't think that's an effective way to improve HISE. Certain issues are simply more important than others, regardless of anyone experiencing them. And self-selection bias reinforces existing issues. Just my $0.02.

@aaronventure said in The big bug tier list:

Not just this, but all the issues in HISE like this. Reliability and API Logic, first. Performance, second. The API should respond as it implies, and be generalised as such. I realise that HISE only works its magic because of many (very clever, and hard-fought) hand-optimisations, and doing the first has implications for the second that I do not know.
