Expansions / Windows

[DanH]

@d-healey Exactly the same yes. Here's a cut down version of the code (thanks for looking :) ) :

• it's pretty much taken from the docs and example projects Christoph provided

/// combo box for my sample maps
const var SAMPLEBOX = Content.getComponent("SAMPLEBOX");
const var mySampleMapNames = ["SOME NAMES"];

const var expHandler = Engine.createExpansionHandler();

const var expansions = expHandler.getExpansionList();

expHandler.setAllowedExpansionTypes([expHandler.FileBased, 
                                     expHandler.Intermediate, 
                                     expHandler.Encrypted]);
                                     
const var expansionNames = [];

expansionNames.push("FACTORY");

for(e in expHandler.getExpansionList())
    expansionNames.push(e.getProperties().Name);
    
const var ExpansionSelector = Content.getComponent("ExpansionSelector");
ExpansionSelector.set("items", expansionNames.join("\n"));

inline function onExpansionSelectorControl(component, value)
{
	expHandler.setCurrentExpansion(component.getItemText());
};

Content.getComponent("ExpansionSelector").setControlCallback(onExpansionSelectorControl);

// Implement the expansion switch

inline function onExpansionSelectorControl(component, value)
{
	local expansionToLoad = component.getItemText();
	
	// We want the first item to reset the current expansion
	// so we need to change it to an empty string
	if(expansionToLoad == expansionNames[0])
        expansionToLoad = "";
    
	expHandler.setCurrentExpansion(expansionToLoad);
};

Content.getComponent("ExpansionSelector").setControlCallback(onExpansionSelectorControl);

var sampleMapsed = Sampler.getSampleMapList();

var backgroundImage = "";
var backgroundImage2 = "";

inline function newcombobox(newExpansion)
{

       if(isDefined(newExpansion))
        
       
    {
        local cx = expHandler.getCurrentExpansion();
        sampleMapsed = cx.getSampleMapList();
        local expansionProps = cx.getProperties();
        local expName = expansionProps.Name;

        for (i = 0; i < sampleMapsed.length; i++)
        {
        sampleMapsed[i] = sampleMapsed[i].replace("{EXP::");
        sampleMapsed[i] = sampleMapsed[i].replace("}");
        sampleMapsed[i] = sampleMapsed[i].replace(expName);

        }
       
        SAMPLEBOX.set("items", "");
        SAMPLEBOX.set("items", sampleMapsed.join("\n"));
        backgroundImage = newExpansion.getWildcardReference("logo.png");
        backgroundImage2 = newExpansion.getWildcardReference("stars.png");
        
    }
    else
    {
        SAMPLEBOX.set("items", "");
        SAMPLEBOX.set("items", mySampleMapNames.join("\n"));
        backgroundImage = "{PROJECT_FOLDER}logo.png";
        backgroundImage2 = "{PROJECT_FOLDER}stars.png";
        
    }
    
    Image1.set("fileName", backgroundImage);
    Image4.set("fileName", backgroundImage2);
}

expHandler.setExpansionCallback(newcombobox);

newcombobox(undefined);

You have two onExpansionSelectorControl functions

[DanH]

@d-healey good spot!

[DanH]

@d-healey got rid of the first function and behaviour is the same i.e osx great, windows not... :/

Do you know if it's meant to work as I want it?

[d.healey]

@DanH Yes it should work

[DanH]

@d-healey ok that's good to know, thanks. Everything in the newcombobox function is working fine (there's a bunch of stuff I took out too).

If I use the Preset Browser to navigate the expansions and back to factory again it displays the right presets etc.

If you have an idea of where I can start figuring out where the problem is please let me know :)

Make a mini project and post it here

@d-healey here ya go:

Cheers for having a look :)

It works fine on GNU/Linux. I'll fire up the Windows machine later on and take a look there.

@d-healey :folded_hands_light_skin_tone:

[d.healey]

Works on my Windows machine using new_layout branch.

[DanH]

@d-healey really? That's weird.... Thanks so much for checking though. So the presets change when expansions and factory are selected?

[d.healey]

Yep. Make a video of what you see so I can compare.

@d-healey is there an inbuilt windows screenrecorder? otherwise will grab obs

@d-healey Thanks, I did it on my phone in the meantime!

@DanH Which branch are you using?

[DanH]

@d-healey master. I can't go any further with this project at the moment

[d.healey]

@DanH

master.

Try the develop or new_layout branch

[DanH]

@d-healey yup building now
