@Casey-Kolb Ok I'm real close

Just need to figure out how to get the sliderpacks to store their values properly, I'm getting in a mess - SP's are super confusing!

"ARPDATA" :
            {
                local arppitcharray = [];
                "ARPPITCH" :
                for (i = 0; i < SliderPack4.getNumSliders(); i++)
                {
                    arpitcharray = SliderPack4.getSliderValueAt(i));
                }
            }

@DanH Is that a loop and a local variable declaration inside an object?

[DanH]

@d-healey yup!

[d.healey]

@DanH That's a new level of crazy, I wish you luck :p

[Christoph Hart]

So you are telling us that the thing you typed there actually works and doesn't deinstall HISE when you try to compile it like it's supposed to do :)

[DanH]

@Christoph-Hart I think I'm into triple figures for crashes today!

@d-healey Thanks, I've smoothed it out a bit. I have no idea how to work with objects. I can sometimes save the sliderpack arrays to the json files, but I can't get them to ever load back in.

const var SaveOk3 = Content.getComponent("SaveOk3");


inline function onSaveOk3Control(component, value) {
        if (value)
        {
            local presetName3 = PresetNameToSave3.get("text");
            PresetHandler3.savePresetFile(presetName3, getControlValues3());
            SavePreset3.setValue(false);
            SavePreset3.changed();
            populatePresetList3();
            {
            for (i = 0; i < 16; i++)
            
                SliderPack5SAVEData[i] = SliderPack5.getSliderValueAt(i);
            }
            
            
            {
            for (i = 0; i < 16; i++)
            
                SliderPack4SAVEData[i] = SliderPack4.getSliderValueAt(i);
            }
            
        }
    };

    
    inline function onSaveCancel3Control(component, value)
    {
        SavePreset3.setValue(false);
        SavePreset3.changed();
    };

    inline function getControlValues3() {
        return {
            
            "ARPITCHDATA" : SliderPack4SAVEData,
            "ARPLENGTHDATA" : SliderPack5SAVEData
            
        };
    }
    
    inline function setControlValues3(data)
    {
        
        for (i = 0; i < 16; i++)
        {
            SliderPack4[i].setSliderAtIndex(i, ARPITCHDATA[i]);
        }
        for (i = 0; i < 16; i++)
        {
            SliderPack5[i].setSliderAtIndex(i, ARPLENGTHDATA[i]);
        }
    }

}

W3Schools.com

Well organized and easy to understand Web building tutorials with lots of examples of how to use HTML, CSS, JavaScript, SQL, Python, PHP, Bootstrap, Java, XML and more.

 {
            for (i = 0; i < 16; i++)
            
                SliderPack5SAVEData[i] = SliderPack5.getSliderValueAt(i);
            }

            }

You have an unhealthy obsession with superfluous curly braces.

I'm going to make a video for you right now, hang tight.

[DanH]

@d-healey okay thanks!

[d.healey]

@DanH HD version is taking ages to process, hopefully it's done by the time you return.

[DanH]

@d-healey Thanks, very helpful :)

I can get my knob values saved into objects and restored all ok. Just the sliderpacks that confuse the bollox out of me.

[d.healey]

@DanH Make a simple example that takes the value of each of the sliderpacks sliders and puts them in an array. Or a simpler solution might be to use a slider pack data object.

[DanH]

@d-healey I can get the values into an array. I then need to get them into an object and then back into the sliderpacks....

[d.healey]

I can get the values into an array.

Can you get them out of the array and back into the sliderpack (ignoring the object part at the moment)?

[DanH]

@d-healey yup

[d.healey]

@DanH Can you access an array that is inside an object?

[DanH]

@d-healey yup

[d.healey]

@DanH So which part are you missing?

[DanH]

@d-healey how to fit it into the system I'm using to save the arp presets. Let me have another go

[d.healey]

@DanH Make a simple snippet that saves one slider pack into an array and writes it to a json file and reloads it. That will give us something to work with.
