OpenGL ComboBox, And "NO" By Default

[Dan Korneff]

EDIT: this isn't working :(

nevermind... changing StandalonePopupComponents.cpp 128
from

#if !HISE_USE_OPENGL_FOR_PLUGIN

to

#if HISE_USE_OPENGL_FOR_PLUGIN

is working here.

@dustbro Yeah, I need to add another preprocessor (something like HISE_ENABLE_OPENGL_BY_DEFAULT). This macro will deactivate the entire OpenGL thing.

[DanH]

@dustbro could you not include the general settings xml in your installer and set the opengl to 0?

[Dan Korneff]

@DanH That's a short term solution that would work... but then I have to update a bunch of installers, write post-install scripts for the new files, answer endless tech support emails about why their default GUI zoom setting reset to 100% because the script accidentally overwrote an existing xml with their most favorite zoom setting in the world, then defend my product on SlutSpace cause if I can't keep track of a single xml file how can the customer trust the DSP under the hood. This, of course, would coincide with an unplanned ilOk Cloud outage that prompts 35.7% of my customer base to set their studios on fire.
Not good for business

[DanH]

@dustbro lol! It shouldn't overwrite the existing settings file though, should it? Anway, let's hope this can be added :)

[Christoph Hart]

@DanH Crisis averted:

- added HISE_DEFAULT_OPENGL_VALUE preprocessor · christophhart/HISE@424b619

The open source framework for sample based instruments - - added HISE_DEFAULT_OPENGL_VALUE preprocessor · christophhart/HISE@424b619

@Christoph-Hart yay!!

[Dan Korneff]

@Christoph-Hart Do we have to make any additional changes to get this to work? I have HISE_USE_OPENGL_FOR_PLUGIN=1 set in Extra Definitions cause the combo box doesn't show up inthe export without it.
The GeneralSettings.xml is still being created with OPEN_GL=1 even if the plug-in is set to "no" when exporting.

[Christoph Hart]

@dustbro You have to add HISE_DEFAULT_OPENGL_VALUE=1

[Dan Korneff]

@Christoph-Hart
Setting HISE_DEFAULT_OPENGL_VALUE=1 exports with openGL enabled by default.
I have set:

HISE_USE_OPENGL_FOR_PLUGIN=1 
HISE_DEFAULT_OPENGL_VALUE=0

Now the OPEN_GL property is initializing properly, but the combo box disappears.

[Christoph Hart]

@dustbro yeah, it's Big brain time over here.

Should be fixed now.

[Dan Korneff]

@Christoph-Hart Thanks! confirmed
