Call a function after the plugin loaded

[A Former User]

@d-healey Yes I've tried the FloatingTile, but unfortunately the plugin always load with "Yes" by default (I mean on the first plugin installation). And there isn't a "No" option by default.

So the user must deactivate it manually. I need the plugin is OpenGL disabled by default with the first installation because of the shitty OpenGL performance on some systems.

@harris-rosendahl What about if you set the floating tile to saveInPreset = true and save your project before exporting with the OpenGL option set to disabled?

@d-healey CustomSettings FT can't saved in a preset, I've tested it :/

Above timer object will always start 1 second after the plugin is loaded and then stop, right?

@harris-rosendahl what about using this flag: HISE_USE_OPENGL_FOR_PLUGIN=0 ?

This time, OpenGL is completely disabled then :) And the user can't activate it if he wants. There is no middle way ahahah :D

I just need OpenGL is available according to the user demand, but disabled by default, that's it.

I need to call a function after the plugin loaded into the DAW. So am I making a mistake with below use? Or any more useful ideas?

Plugin performance is important for me, so do you think below usage can bring some trouble especially on the multi usage (let's say 30 instances) in the DAW project?

var startupSorter = Engine.createTimerObject();

startupSorter.setTimerCallback(function(t)
{
    this.stopTimer();
    myFunction();
 
});

startupSorter.startTimer(1000);

In your timerCallback you have to switch places of myFunction() and this.stopTimer()
as you have it now the timer will stop before it reach your function

startupSorter.setTimerCallback(function(t)
{
    myFunction(); 
    this.stopTimer();
 });

@ulrik Oh, I see, thank you!

Err, i'm not sure thats true.... the stopTimer call will stop subsequent calls to the timer - it wont stop execution of the current callback...

@Lindon I just tried it, and you're right, it finish the callback

Sorry @harris-rosendahl @Lindon

@ulrik No problem.

I think I found a bug, Settings.isOpenGLEnabled() returns always true o the compiled plugin, but it works on Hise.

If you set the OpenGL "No" on the CustomSettings FT, GeneralSettings.xml shows OPEN_GL="0" when the plugin is closed, as it supposed to be. That's ok.

But when you load the plugin again, even the OPEN_GL is set to 0 on the GeneralSettings.xml, Settings.isOpenGLEnabled() returns always true.
