Adding samplemaps

[coreyu21]

@TNTHM hello, so when I have my expansion project built, the only issue I run into is whether you use the combo box to load an expansion or a viewport to updare the preset browser, I cannot use saveInPreset to save the expansion without the system failing. I’ve talked with @d-healey and we think it has something to do with the c++ somewhere. Thats the only issue I’ve ran across and it’s killing me

[TNTHM]

@coreyu21 I see. I've been having a problem with saveInPreset breaking the link between the knob and the module parameter it is assigned to. I thought you might be referencing that.

On that note: When I select saveInPreset for a knob it stops manipulating the module parameter I have assigned it too, via parameterId. Has anyone experienced this problem? Does anyone have a solution to it?

@TNTHM Never seen such an issue... What Hise version do you use? Do you have a callback assigned to this knob along with a parameterId in the property editor? If it is the case, you should have only one of them, not both...

[TNTHM]

@ustk It's certainly strange, yes. I am running v2.1.0. There shouldn't be any callbacks assigned to the knobs, but to be completely honest I don't know what a callback is. Is there a way to overwrite isPluginParameter in the script editor?

[ustk]

@TNTHM Well, if you don't know what a callback is, I strongly suggest that you watch @d-healey videos... The answers will come Neo :)

[TNTHM]

@ustk I've watched a few, obviously I need to watch a few more!

[TNTHM]

@ustk Still curious if there is a way to overwrite isPluginParameter in the script editor.

[ustk]

@TNTHM What do you mean by overwrite? you can change its state manually in the script editor, or you can use knob.set("isPluginParameter", true) in script

[TNTHM]

@ustk This is what I was looking for. Thanks!

[ustk]

@TNTHM all component properties can be accessed this way from script ;)

[TNTHM]

@ustk EPIC!! Thanks for thanks for the tip!

First ten minutes is all about callbacks

@d-healey this is gold. Thank you!

@TNTHM The simplest way to modify any of the parameters of your UI widgets is:

select your widget from the list then Press Control-J

This will show you the JSON for the widget and you can change any param to whatever - including deleting the param and press save.

@Lindon No need for CTRL, pressing J works :)

your right! another round of repetitive strain injury saved!

@Lindon @ustk yep that right there is game changing for me. Appreciate it guys!
