Output the value of a slider in a separate label

[ThomAce]

@d-healey Yeah, but you know how we develop... :D Typing something, then CTRL+S, CTRL+S, CTRL+S... But good thing anyway to use the F5... I didn't knew that this works on code editor as well. A visual feedback might be helpful for such idiots like me. :) I always forget that the code not in sync with the gui design. But, despite some bugs I found in the tool, it is awesome.

@d-healey I just want to output the value. So basically like this:

CUTOFF: 100%

And when I drag over the number or use scroll wheel it should increase/decrease it. In other words, the behavior of a diagonal slider but it should be not visible except it‘s value/textbox.

@nic In the look and feel function you just need to draw the text then.

@d-healey can you point me in the right direction how to set up the laf function? I have Content.getComponent() and don‘t know how to assign or start the laf.

@nic

const var Label = Content.getComponent("Label");
const var Knob = Content.getComponent("Knob");

inline function onKnobControl(component, value)
{
   Label.set("text",value);
};
Content.getComponent("Knob").setControlCallback(onKnobControl);

If you want something more "fancy" perhaps you could consider making only the writing visible on the label and making the other customizations in a panel. From what I understand it should be the most immediate way.

Values ​​and strings in labels can also be concatenated with the "+" symbol

.set("text", Engine.doubleToString(value, 0)+" %");

@Mighty23 thank you very much but I already tried that. The problem is that I want to use proccessorId and so setControlCallback() will not fire. I have to change look and feel instead.

If I do this:

const var cutoffSlider = Content.getComponent('cutoffSlider');
cutoffSlider.createLocalLookAndFeel();

I get error "function not found". How do I set up it correctly?

@d-healey thanks! Big help.

@nic As we told, you have to remove the parameter properties from that slider and then you have to use scripting. What I provided does exactly what you are looking for...

Just for example:
