Blurry Panel?!

@Natan Just out of curiousity.
What is the difference between boxblur and gaussianBlur?

The effect seems the same with the snippets you provided that's all.

[ulrik]

@nesta99 Yeah, the boxblur is working but not the gaussian...

@ulrik @Natan @ustk Ok guys. Thanks a lot. I'll try it out!

[Christoph Hart]

Yes I think there was an issue with the gaussian blur IPP routine on macOS which is why I deactivated it. Box Blur doesn't look as smooth, but it's way faster anyway.

@Christoph-Hart
Ok great! Thanks @Christoph-Hart

I could use some help with Paint Routines involving Panel Blur and GUI scaling. I've created an image at 2X scale, so GUI zoom level at 200% looks good.
My original paint routine looked like this, and scaled properly:

Panel1.loadImage("{PROJECT_FOLDER}Panel1.png", "Panel_1");

Panel1.setPaintRoutine(function(fp)
{
	fp.drawImage("Panel_1", [0, 0, this.getWidth(), this.getHeight()], 0, 0);
});

I wanted to blur this panel when another is opened, so I did this:

var BlurLevel = 0;

Panel1.loadImage("{PROJECT_FOLDER}Panel1.png", "Panel_1");

Panel1.setPaintRoutine(function(fp)
{
        fp.beginLayer(true);
	fp.drawImage("Panel_1", [0, 0, this.getWidth(), this.getHeight()], 0, 0);
        fp.boxBlur(BlurLevel);
        fp.endLayer();
});

And this is what I'm doing when this new panel opens/closes:

const var PanelOpen = Content.getComponent("Panel_Open");

inline function onPanelOpenControl(component, value)
{
	BlurLevel = value *5;          //Set Blur Level
        Panel1.repaint();    //blur panel in background
};
Content.getComponent("PanelOpen").setControlCallback(onPanelOpenControl);

In this configuration, Blur works just fine, but the png doesn't redraw when GUI scaling is changed and the result is not crisp.
What would you guys do?

[Dan Korneff]

And.... of course it starts working directly after I post for help.
False alarm

@Natan The snippet works now. The fault was mine, sorry. My version of Hise was the master (the one made 2 years ago). Now I got why I didn't had all the features you guys have! Thanks

After implementing this paint routine, my panels are no longer redrawing when using GUI zoom. Am I missing something stupid?

Panel1.setPaintRoutine(function(fp)
{
        fp.beginLayer(true);
	fp.drawImage("Panel_1", [0, 0, this.getWidth(), this.getHeight()], 0, 0);
        fp.boxBlur(BlurLevel);
        fp.endLayer();
});

@dustbro No idea about the not redrawing, but why do you use fp as the variable name? You miss out on the auto-complete.

[ustk]

@dustbro I use boxBlur with no issue when zooming. At least in Hise, I haven't tested an exported project...

The GUI zoom works, but the image becomes blurry.

I try to use variables that align with their property... but sometimes that auto-complete is really handy. Maybe I'll switch it up.
