Default .xml Per Project

[aaronventure]

@d-healey I do too, that's why I would like to have the option for it to load immediately on HISE load.

[d.healey]

@aaronventure aha I see, I just press enter so hadn't paid it much attention

[aaronventure]

@d-healey when launching HISE or project change? For project change, yeah, enter works, but for launching HISE it's always navigating to File > Recent Files > preset.xml , unless I'm missing something.

[d.healey]

@aaronventure I think you're right

[oskarsh]

@aaronventure That would be great ++

When compiling DSP Networks having to reopen HISE makes it much more streamlined if it will load up the same .xml as before or if we can just set a default XML.

[aaronventure]

@oskarsh Also the same workspace and script editor tabs but one step at a time

[d.healey]

@oskarsh you don't need to open the XML to compile the project's networks

[oskarsh]

@d-healey I know :)

But if you want to test it in context with your project you surely need to open the correct xml

[d.healey]

@oskarsh said in Default .xml Per Project:

the correct xml

You have more than one? :p

Most of the time I open HISE once to work on my project, and close it when I'm done. The rest of the time I want to open a blank preset for making little test projects. So a default xml thing isn't so useful to me. But maybe it would be better if when you open HISE it shows you a prompt asking if you want to reopen the last xml, then you can hit enter or esc depending on what you want to do?

@d-healey I have one main xml file named like the project and smaller stripped down versions for testing. Once a plugin reaches a certain level of complexity I like to branch out and create a new one to test complex features in isolation.

I often also have a Waveform, Filter, Arp combo in one xml to test the audio and the scriptfx networks. So that I can click click click to have a good sounding working setup. I mainly work with FX Plugins.

I think having a prompt where we can just press enter or escape would be a very good compromise. I think this already exists when changing projects.
