Macros - Clear All?

[DanH]

@d-healey Interesting, I've found the option you referred to. It clears the assigned controls but also resets the name of the macro which was defined in LAF so.... hmmmm!

[d.healey]

@DanH Looking in the source you'll see the control does those things separately, so you don't have to wrap all of the functionality in the scriptable function, just the part you want.

[DanH]

@d-healey yep I'm searching now, thanks! :)

[DanH]

@d-healey Ok so how does one wrap stuff into a script function?! :face_with_tears_of_joy:

@d-healey Thanks, I had a play with the code and couldn't find a way to prevent the name resetting.

I was commenting out lines from this bit at 206, but it was all or nothing. Perhaps it's elsewhere in the script. The function here is for one Macro at a time, but I guess it could be tweaked to apply to all.

	if(result == -1)
		{
			synthChain->getMainController()->getMacroManager().setMacroControlMidiLearnMode(synthChain, index);
			synthChain->getMainController()->getMacroManager().setMidiControllerForMacro(-1);

			synthChain->clearData(index);

			macroNames[index]->setText("Macro " + String(index + 1), dontSendNotification);

		}

@DanH said in Macros - Clear All?:

synthChain->clearData(index);

So now you need to dig deeper and find out what the clearData function does.

[DanH]

@d-healey Hmmm... need a hint, where to look perhaps? To me it looks like it clears the data collected in the lines above.

[d.healey]

@DanH Find the function definition and see what it's doing

[DanH]

@d-healey I'm getting confused. Is it defined in the the file, or is it a more general c++ thing?

[d.healey]

@DanH clearData is a function, so somewhere in the HISE sourcecode there must be a place where that function is defined, it will look something like (but not exactly the same as):

function clearData()
{
}

[DanH]

@d-healey gotcha

[DanH]

@d-healey searched the SC for clearData... Nothing pertinent coming up :/

[ulrik]

@DanH is it this you're looking for?

[DanH]

@ulrik Thanks, I honestly don't know :face_with_tears_of_joy:

Does it define the function of clearData

[ulrik]

@DanH Yes I think this is where the function is defined, better ask David :)

[d.healey]

@ulrik Looks like a function definition to me, of course there could be more than one clearData function so make sure it's in the right class (what ever object type synthChain is).

[DanH]

@d-healey it never ends! :face_with_tears_of_joy:

[d.healey]

@DanH :) Yep
