How to get rid rid of {EXP::...}

@UrsBollhalder
I can't test right now, but try this:

inline function loadSampleFromViewport(component, value)
{
    for (n in name)
        n.replace("{EXP::LIGHTER}", ""); 
       
    ViewportsExp[1].set("items", name.join("\n"));  
}
    
ViewportsExp[0].setControlCallback(loadSampleFromViewport);

@ustk Awesome! Thanks so much. I’ll give it a go and can do some more digging if necessary!! 🥳

How are you populating the array initially?

How are you populating the array initially?

for(e in expHandler.getExpansionList()){
            expansionNames.push(e.getProperties().Name);
            expSampleMaps.push(e.getSampleMapList()); 
        }

Like this.

@d-healey @ustk Maybe not the most elegant, but it works... couldn't make the replace function working! So I split....

    const var ViewportsExp = [Content.getComponent("vwpExp"),
                          Content.getComponent("vwpSampleMaps")];


    ViewportsExp[0].set("useList", true);
    ViewportsExp[1].set("useList", true);
    ViewportsExp[0].set("items", expansionNames.join("\n"));
    
    const var namesExp = [];
    
    inline function loadSampleFromViewport(component, value)
    {
       namesExp.clear();
       var name = expSampleMaps[value]; 
    
       for (n in name){
           
           var sp = n.split("}");          
           namesExp.push(sp[1]);
       }
      
       ViewportsExp[1].set("items", namesExp.join("\n"));  
    }
    
    ViewportsExp[0].setControlCallback(loadSampleFromViewport);

@UrsBollhalder Yeah replace won't work unless all of the sample maps are from the same expansion. You could also use substring().

@d-healey @UrsBollhalder I don't know very much expansions, but I thought there was a way to get the expansion name like:

n.replace("{EXP::" + getExpansionName() + "}", "");

@ustk That looks rather solid as well tbh!
