Pretty weird problem with the Preset Browser ?

[ustk]

Ok so after scrutinizing the code for hours, I need help for this one (rename & delete don't appear in 2 columns mode)

I know it is because listbox->getNumSelectedRows() > 0 returns false for some reason... But what reason is beyond my skills

void PresetBrowserColumn::updateButtonVisibility()
{
	editButton->setVisible(false);

	const bool buttonsVisible = showButtonsAtBottom && !isResultBar && currentRoot.isDirectory();
	const bool fileIsSelected = listbox->getNumSelectedRows() > 0;

	addButton->setVisible(buttonsVisible);
	deleteButton->setVisible(buttonsVisible && fileIsSelected);
	renameButton->setVisible(buttonsVisible && fileIsSelected);
}

@ustk What do you mean by "delete" not appearing in 2 columns ?
Delete works for me...

Although its annoying that if I delete it goes back to category and I have to select that to see the presets again.

EDIT: This going back to category is another sometimes issue..?

Delete works for me...

Bottom of the left column, there are no Rename and Delete only in 2 columns mode:

Will check that tomorrow, might be a lucky day :)

@ustk Ah, You mean delete and rename Category ! hehe.
I hadnt even noticed that yet ....indeed

[ustk]

@lalalandsynth Yep, I meant:

In 2 columns mode, you can't rename the Bank....

:)

The preset browser is fixed. Although I'm a C++ noob, so it certainly could have been done in a better way, so feel free to make it better and teach me at the same time :)

Here's my fork so it can be tested before I make a pull request to Dave's fork:
(My fork is up to date with Dave's one, so only the preset browser is different...)

Still, the last remaining issue is that Rename and Delete buttons don't appear in the bank column when in 2 columns mode. I still need help with this one...

@ustk Good work, I'll have a look later today and see if I can track down the rename/delete buttons.

[ustk]

@d-healey Cool! if you haven't seen my post about it, here it is:
https://forum.hise.audio/topic/2766/pretty-weird-problem-with-the-preset-browser/28
When removing the second condition (fileIsSelected), they are showing back...

[ustk]

@ustk I think listboxmight be the issue...

[ustk]

@d-healey That's all fixed, the buttons were not updated when there's no category column...
I'm working to make the column width customizable

[lalalandsynth]

@ustk is there a build for these fixes , my plugin is nearing completion, would love to have a fix for this issue.

Edit: just saw there is a fork but is everything working now ?

[ustk]

@lalalandsynth Everything seems to be working. You can find my fork 6 posts above. You can use it, but if @d-healey is ok to merge, we'll keep only his fork so things are tidy...

[lalalandsynth]

What do you say Mr. @d-healey :)

[d.healey]

Oh yeah, sorry I forgot about this one, I have to fix a merge issue. I remember @ustk told me what to do so I'll fix it soon.

[d.healey]

Done, and it looks like Christoph has merged scriptnode into my develop branch (I didn't know that was possible). Let me know if it works!

[ustk]

@d-healey You rock
Yeah, I've seen that scriptnode merge... I wonder if it works now because I've also seen a newer commit that fixes mac compilation...
I don't see @Christoph-Hart scriptnode merge on my fork... My this doesn't reflect?

eah, I've seen that scriptnode merge... I wonder if it works now because I've also seen a newer commit that fixes mac compilation...

Was there a problem with mac compilation ?

Will build and test tomorrow :)

The topic is old, but if suddenly someone, like me, is looking for a solution to correctly switch presets with only 2 columns...
If you set 2 columns in the browser settings, then when you switch the next/previous preset, the browser will return to the category column. With three columns (default), the browser correctly displays the selected preset. Possibly a bad solution, but it works. Just reduce the ratio of the first column to zero if you only need to display 2.

"NumColumns": 3,
  "ColumnWidthRatio": [
    0.0,
    0.5,
    0.5
  ],
