issue with png filmstrips for a simple knob control

[cadrose]

Hey,

Im having an issue with png filmstrips for a simple knob control.

The PNG is 180 steps and I'm using Figma to make the filmstrips.

Has anyone have any ideas what could be causing this?

Many Thanks

Callum

@cadrose Should numstrips be set to 180?

@d-healey I originally exported it at 270 which was recommended by the plug-in in digna as a starting point but I ran into the same issue.

Is there a general number of steps that’s ideal in hise?

Yes zero, use LAF instead of images if you want the best performance.

If you're going to use images though I don't see a need to use more than 128, and I think that's probably too many in most cases.

Regardless of that, did you try setting the numstrips property of your knob to the number of frames in your image?

@cadrose
Ah yes, Ive been dabbling with LAF thanks to your videos. However the learning curve feels very steep for me at this stage.

I also tried exporting at 32 steps but I'm getting the same issue just more subtle. the knob still rises upwards.

The settings for the knob maker are:
frame angle: 360
start angle: 225
end angle: 135
frames: 32

Also 4518.96 doesn't divide evenly into 32 so that might cause an issue - not sure.

@d-healey This was the issue, changed the size of the knob before making the filmstrip and this solved it, thanks!
