Combo Box values in Script Processor

[Lindon]

OK I'm using a number of script processors (attached to Synthesiser Groups but thats not an issue)

Here's some of the code

const var myNote1 = Content.addComboBox("myCombo1", 300,10);
myNote1.addItem("C");
myNote1.addItem("C#");
myNote1.addItem("D");
myNote1.addItem("D#");
myNote1.addItem("E");
myNote1.addItem("F");
myNote1.addItem("F#");
myNote1.addItem("G");
myNote1.addItem("G#");
myNote1.addItem("A");
myNote1.addItem("A#");
myNote1.addItem("B");

So pretty simple really, but....everytime I compile it adds these 12 values to the existing contents of the combo box, so how do I make it just do this once?

@Lindon Just write them straight into the list items in the interface designer.

@d-healey yeah I have quite a few to do - I'd like to do it programmatically if I can.

@Lindon Do it once then delete the code. It should add it in the interface designer if I remember correctly. If you want to leave it in the code you can use myNote1.set("items", "A", "B", "C", etc.);

You can clear the list before adding the items by passing an empty string:

const var myNote1 = Content.addComboBox("myCombo1", 300,10);
myNote1.set("items", "");
myNote1.addItem("C");
myNote1.addItem("C#");
myNote1.addItem("D");
myNote1.addItem("D#");
myNote1.addItem("E");
myNote1.addItem("F");
myNote1.addItem("F#");
myNote1.addItem("G");
myNote1.addItem("G#");
myNote1.addItem("A");
myNote1.addItem("A#");
myNote1.addItem("B");

@Christoph-Hart OK thanks

Slightly related query

ViewportList.set("items", ""); Doesn't behave as expected. It's like the component needs to be repainted/refreshed.
