Panel "isPluginParameter"?

[ulrik]

In the Property editor there is this "pluginParameterName" for a lot of components, even for panels but... the panel does not have the "isPluginParameter" check box, is it missing, or is it not supposed to have this?

[ulrik]

@ulrik well Hise doesn't complain if I set

Canvas.set("isPluginParameter", true);

hmm..

[ulrik]

@ulrik I tested and compiled a plugin with

Panel.set("isPluginParameter", true);

and indeed it shows up inside Logic

However the panel has a value range between 0 - 4 and Logic shows only 0 and 1
I guess there is a way to tell the daw the range, anybody?

• well Ulrik, maybe you should try to set the min & max values in the panel before you compile??
• ehh, ok

@ulrik

The panel will not change its value from the automation, no problems with the knobs.
What is missing to get the panel callback to be triggered?

I was just going to post the same exact thing. I'm using a panel for buttons. Would like to automate them.

@Dan-Korneff Why using panels for buttons and not LAF? (I feel we already have this convo)

[ulrik]

@d-healey In some cases you can't use LAF because maybe there is need for more functions than what a button has, at least that's what I think, correct me if I'm wrong.

Like in the example above, the 5 states button "item1, etc..", to set an event hover for each "item" for instance, or maybe I'm wrong?

[d.healey]

@ulrik I think you're right, if you want additional mouse actions then a panel is the way to go.

[Dan Korneff]

@d-healey buttons don't behave properly in AAX.

[d.healey]

@Dan-Korneff All hail the industry standard Pro-Tools :)

[Dan Korneff]

@d-healey it's probably a HISE thing, but I have to do some hacky preset loading to initialize buttons to their proper state

Indeed, is it possible to make this work @Christoph-Hart ?
