UPDATE // NEW: Online Knob Builder for HISE!! // SVG's has entered the chat ! =)

[Chazrox]

@ustk That would be sick! Im slowly building other element designers as well. Just trying to get this one feature complete as possible so I can let it go for a bit.

[David Healey]

@Chazrox I tried the version you sent me the other day but not the more recent ones. My knob requirements are very basic :)

[Chazrox]

@David-Healey Basic is good! Nothing ever wrong with that. I'm also a designer so this is just more intuitive and fun (because why not fun? lol) for me and probably also for people alike. I've seen some pretty interesting knobs with some of the new plugin releases i've been seeing so I just hope this will help Hise users that dont have much coding experience make more and more unique styles faster and easier (which keeps it fun). The knobs i've shown in these examples take less than 5 minutes to make when i've taken hours to make one knob trying to figure out how things work. No more of that.

I've already built a 6-State Button Designer that spits out LAF code and PNG filmstrips. Thats coming soon and it will be just as feature stacked!

Fantastic work. Would love it if we could also adjust the drop shadow on the x axis. Need to find a way to use this in JUCE.

Utilised https://marketplace.juce.com/products/melatonin_blur and got it rendering in JUCE nicely

[Lindon]

one more vote for x axis on the shadows....

[digi]

Separate gradients on the hightlight and shadow of the drop shadow layer would be awesome too.

[Chazrox]

@digi What is this melatonin blur?

[Chazrox]

@Lindon @digi Sounds reasonable enough. I have a bunch of updates I just added also. I'll do 'Drop Shadow'/ 'X axis offset' too.

[digi]

@Chazrox A better way of getting blurs & glows in JUCE as the native stuff isn't great tbh.

[digi]

@Chazrox Legend, thank you.

[Chazrox]

@digi How do we use this in Hise?

[digi]

@Chazrox You don't; it's for JUCE, not HISE.

[Chazrox]

@digi @Lindon

How does this look? Shadow and highligh shifted on the x-axis.

Can you give me a small codeblock of how you guys add gradient to a dropshadow?

[digi]

Looking clean AF in JUCE :)

You may need to double check but I believe this library is already integrated into HISE and it is how HISE uses blur and shaders. However, I've seen post on here and the JUCE forum regarding this library having performance issues (so worth doing a quick search before implementing it).

[Chazrox]

@digi Are you just dropping the code export from the app and its working in JUCE or are you editing it in any way before compiling in Juce?

[Chazrox]

@HISEnberg I thought I hear Christoph talking about this before but I never looked into it. Thanks. :)

[Chazrox]

@digi Looking gewwwwd!

[digi]

@Chazrox Yeah, it needs to be converted. Regarding the performance issues @HISEnberg mentioned above, you have to be considerate that you're not unneccessarily recomputing expensive operations and utilise effective caching etc.
