General Settings

[d.healey]

@DanH said in General Settings:

The analysers are either Save in Preset or the default value whenever the plugin loads

What's that got to do with general settings?

If you need to store a value outside the preset just write it to a file and read it back on init.

@d-healey That's a good idea

Need to learn how to do this anyway. Any examples to learn from?

HISE | Scripting | File

A object for accessing a file on disk

(docs.hise.audio)

Or this might be easier - https://docs.hise.audio/scripting/scripting-api/engine/index.html#dumpasjson

@d-healey Thanks, so I'm able to write the file from my button callback (no doubt in a super long winded way )

if (value == 1)
    {
        local data = 
        {
        "value": 1
        };
        Engine.dumpAsJSON(data, "../AnaData.js");
    }
    
    if (value == 0)
    {
        local data = 
        {
        "value": 0
        };
        Engine.dumpAsJSON(data, "../AnaData.js");
    }

In the oninit callback I'm not really sure how to extract the info I need to get it to do what I want. Any guidance would be hugely appreciated :)

inline function checkOnLoadANA()
    {
        local aData = Engine.loadFromJSON("../AnaData.js");

        Console.print(aData);
    }

checkOnLoadANA();

[d.healey]

If you're writing the same thing twice there is probably a way to write it only once.

Engine.dumpAsJSON({"value":value}, "../AnaData.js");

Try aData.value in your checkOnLoad function to get the value you saved.

@d-healey Thanks, not getting much joy from:

if (aData.value == 1)

do this etc

Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

First thing I saw. Your button is set to saveInPreset, this will trigger on init and overwrite any previous value in your file. Other than that your code would work fine if you made sure you had the right amount of curly braces - proper indentation would help.

Here's how I'd do it.
