Code-only UI declaration is broken because of this. This bug seems to have been around for at least 2.5 years!

[Engine] setZLevel() doesn't execute on init · Issue #731 · christophhart/HISE

const button = Content.addButton("btn", 0, 0); const panel = Content.addPanel("pnl", 0, 0); button.setZLevel("Front"); It has to be called with a delay so that it executes after init, because calling in during init does nothing. Also, ca...

Declare your components in the order you want them to be at init.

[aaronventure]

@d-healey ah that's true, but that will forces a way of grouping components by place instead of functionality and messes with certain aspects of modularity. Also, you have to delete the entire component list every time you want to make a change, which means that you have to do the UI entirely in code (else you lose any property changes you put in by hand.

Kontakt had Z_LAYER since 2017.

@aaronventure don't want to derail this topic from its intentional purpose, but you can easily rebuild the component tree by clicking on the refresh button in the interface designer, this way you don't have to

do the UI entirely in code

This bug's been present for a while, but will likely become more noticeable as the new pitch_shift node is implemented.

@Christoph-Hart Two tick marks in a combobox popup. This has already been mentioned here somewhere. A screenshot and a snippet are in the GitHub issue.

Clones in ScriptNode don't work. I've posted three threads of examples which multiple devs have confirmed.

[ps]

PluginParameters are not working anymore.
I assume since the new system there is a major bug that the plugin parameter is creating a loop reporting back the value which breaks automations in Ableton Live (i assume also major problem for other DAWS). As not everyone maybe tries if automations are still working when pushing an update I thought it's important to mention as it fully breaks automations.
Recreate: one slider - pluginParameter == true - compile and try to automate - live will instantly behave as if there was an interference.

@ps Mmmm... That might be why I have a customer experiencing a bug, failing LogicPro validation... (though it works on some systems like mine)

[ps]

@ustk if you draw in an animation in ableton live for a plugin parameter it doesn't instantly jump to not automating because it thinks you interfered?

[Dan Korneff]

@ps I'm getting some reports from beta testers that automation is bunked in Cubase. Gonna take a closer look this weekend.

[ps]

@Dan-Korneff @ustk I can confirm that after reverting to the last commit before the new plugin parameter system was introduced makes the automations from the DAW work as expected again. I'm cherrypicking other later commits now to narrow it down.

[ustk]

@ps interesting, which commit is it?

It would be very unlikely that DAW automation of plugin parameters (recorded) is not broken for any plugin compiled with a commit later than that. Once the parameter is changed by the DAW it reports back from the plugin again leading to the same behaviour as if you would have moved the slider - in ableton live this leads to "interference" mode which makes automations from the DAW simply not working.

Clicking a draggablefilterpanel controlling a ParametricEQ within a panel that is disabled will hard crash HISE, and Cubase + Logic once the plugin is compiled. This is a real bummer as my latest plugin uses panels to display a series of effects which users can enable and disable, disabling the panel makes it visibly obvious the effect is off, but if a user was to click the panel they'd hard crash their DAW.

I'm pretty sure this bug has been around for a while. Place another panel over the EQ when it's disabled ;)

@Dan-Korneff @ps Just got a report back that the automation system isn't working in Ableton properly. Thanks for sharing your insights.
