      @Rudra-Ghosh Thanks for the example, that makes it more clear. I think I'm still going to avoid LAF for now, it feels too janky.

      exactly what I decided......

          @ustk I had to put

          Content.createPath()
          

          outside the function to get LAF to work with sliders, then it's working fine also when compiled

            @ulrik yeah that might do it, but since Christoph said it was bad to refer to external variables in a custom LAF, I’m a bit confused on doing this...

            Can't help pressing F5 in the forum...

              I'm a bit confused by it too. Christoph said

              the methods that you give the LAF object must never access script variables outside their scope

              But does that mean passing variables in as parameters or referring to variables within the function? What about external constants, won't they be resolved at compile time?

                Right, I've spent most of the day playing around with LAF. It's usable, but it takes some getting used to and it still feels janky.

                  That was a question I asked Christoph but I can’t find the thread... my question was about colours, for instance, is it safe when you use your own external colour var inside a LAF

                    @Christoph-Hart Any idea why paths are causing LAF controls to vanish?

                          Actually @ustk has already provided an example - https://forum.hise.audio/topic/3732/custom-look-and-feel-component-id/12

                                @ustk If it's just the one line I can do it on my fork and make a pull request, I just wanted to check first that you hadn't already made a pull request for it.

                                  @d-healey I don't know if this line is enough, and I don't think I've pushed it so feel free to do it ;)

                                    I don't like fighting with the MIDI sources list LAF so I wrapped the functions in the scripting API instead so we are no longer tied to the floating tile.

                                    It doesn't update the floating tile until I press the UI refresh button, but the idea is you'll use the API instead of the floating tile so it shouldn't be a problem in practice. I might wrap some more of these settings API functions too...
