Hide preset browser when saving a preset.

[ThinkTank]

So, ive been having a hard time with this.
I am using a floating tile for the Preset Browser, and a button to hide/unhide it, which works.
But how can i do the same with the build-in "Save preset" button?

This does not work:

const var FloatingTile1 = Content.getComponent("FloatingTile1");
function onPresetSavedCallback()
{
    // Logic to make the floating tile invisible
    FloatingTile1.set("visible", false);
}

// Set the post preset save callback to the function
UserPresetHandler.setPostPresetSaveCallback(onPresetSavedCallback);

Just throws a:
Unknown function 'setPostPresetSaveCallback'

Ive been trying to get chatGPT to help me, without any luck.

Any help is appreciated!

@xxanx I think you need to define

const UserPresetHandler = Engine.createUserPresetHandler();

first and also the the function is

.setPostSaveCallback()

not setPostPresetSaveCallback

@alhug said in Hide preset browser when saving a preset.:

.setPostSaveCallback()

Thanks,

This seems to work, sort of (it closed the preset browser right away when clicking save preset):

const var uph = Engine.createUserPresetHandler();

uph.setPostSaveCallback(function()
{

    // Logic to make the floating tile invisible after a preset is loaded
    FloatingTile1.set("visible", false);
   });

However, the preset browser prompts the user the overwrite the preset, so its actually not working correctly. The preset browser still shows up when clicking "previous" or "next"

Do you have your show preset browser button set to saveInPreset enabled?

[ThinkTank]

@d-healey

Yes, i do.
But either way, the issue still persists.
When i click previous or next buttons, and open the browser the "Overwrite prompt" is still there.

[d.healey]

@xxanx Each time you switch preset it's triggering that button and showing you your preset browser again :)

@d-healey

Thanks!
However if its on or off, the issue still persists.
When i click previous or next buttons, and click the browser button the "Overwrite prompt" is still there.

And "tempFileBeforeMove" shows up in the preset name text "label"

I guess you've found an issue that the post save callback fires at the wrong time. @Christoph-Hart Can this be moved to fire after the confirmation?

[ThinkTank]

@d-healey
I believe so yes, it should fire after the overwrite prompt.
I wonder if its possible to add a timer? (wait 1 second) before running it?
Just as a temporary quick fix.

[d.healey]

@xxanx Yeah you could do that

@d-healey

Still having issues with closing the preset browser when overwriting a preset, do you have an example of using a timer?

[ThinkTank]

@d-healey

This is what i have so far:
(rough code i think)

// SHOW AND HIDE PRESET BROWSER WITH BUTTON
const var FloatingTile1 = Content.getComponent("FloatingTile1");
const var Button1 = Content.getComponent("Button1");
Button1.setControlCallback(Button1CB);

inline function Button1CB(control, value)
{
    FloatingTile1.showControl(value);
};

// Close Preset browser after save
const var uph = Engine.createUserPresetHandler();

uph.setPostSaveCallback(function()
{
    // Logic to make the floating tile invisible after a preset is saved
    FloatingTile1.set("visible", false);
    Button1.setValue(false); // Update the button state to match the FloatingTile visibility
});

uph.setPostCallback(function()
{
    // Logic to make the floating tile invisible after a preset is loaded
    FloatingTile1.set("visible", false);
    Button1.setValue(false); // Also update the button state here to ensure consistency
});

@xxanx

Figured it out.

In case anyone else wants a preset browser that kinda works, with opening and closing (with preset overwrite prompt)
heres my code:

// SHOW AND HIDE PRESET BROWSER WITH BUTTON
const var FloatingTile1 = Content.getComponent("FloatingTile1");
const var Button1 = Content.getComponent("Button1");
Button1.setControlCallback(Button1CB);

inline function Button1CB(control, value)
{
    FloatingTile1.showControl(value);
};

// Timer for handling delay after saving a preset
const var saveTimer = Engine.createTimerObject();
var saveTimerCounter = 0;

saveTimer.setTimerCallback(function()
{
    if (saveTimerCounter > 0)
    {
        saveTimerCounter--;
        if (saveTimerCounter == 0)
        {
            FloatingTile1.set("visible", false);
            Button1.setValue(false);
            saveTimer.stopTimer();
        }
    }
});

// Close Preset browser after save
const var uph = Engine.createUserPresetHandler();

uph.setPostSaveCallback(function()
{
    saveTimerCounter = 1; // Set the counter for a brief delay
    saveTimer.startTimer(5500); // 500 milliseconds delay
});

// Logic for handling preset loading (remains unchanged)
uph.setPostCallback(function()
{
    FloatingTile1.set("visible", false);
    Button1.setValue(false); 
});
