Look and Feel - Toggle Buttons and the MIDI Sources panel...

[d.healey]

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.

[ustk]

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?

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

[d.healey]

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

[Christoph Hart]

Do you have a reproducible example?

[d.healey]

@Christoph-Hart I will in a minute little while, dinner's ready :D

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

@Lindon It's not yet merged, but if you can't wait, just remove or comment out this line:

Have you made a pull request?

[ustk]

@d-healey hum… dunno… I'll try to get my head around this tomorrow but pretty busy atm

[d.healey]

@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.

[ustk]

@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...
