only when plugin is visible?

[Morphoice]

@d-healey basically I'd just want to relay the meter from the sampler, I had gotten the value with

var value = Synth.getChildSynth("Bass").getCurrentLevel(true);

inside the paint routine, which was stupid. Id probably also have to sum them to mono as there is really no stereo information in the samplers. Single drum one-shots. But i figured with the layout of the plugin the visualisation helps to identify the correct slider as there isn't much space for a lot of labels.

[d.healey]

@Morphoice I'll send you an example when I'm back home in a few hours

[Morphoice]

@d-healey preem! thanks

[d.healey]

I'm using a sinewave gen in this example but will work with a sampler just the same.

@d-healey How Can I change it to vertical . from bottom to Top. My Snippet only doing the opposite. How to invert it ?

@DabDab you need to subtract from the height because y0 is the top of the component. I'll make an example in a little while

[d.healey]

Here you go, this handles both vertical and horizontal

@d-healey Understood my mistakes.

[Morphoice]

@d-healey Thanks Dan! The example works well, yet when I implement it into my plugin, I seem to be unable to assign the look and feel. I must have mistyped something and can't see the mistake. Bad night.

Show me your code

[griffinboy]

@Morphoice

I made a post about this where I posted a code snippet that will completely bypass a timer when the ui is closed

[Morphoice]

@d-healey why am I saying Dan all the time? It'll take me a while to get that fixed in my head lol I apologize

const volumeMeters	 	= Content.getAllComponents("Meter");
// Meter1, Meter2 etc.

const var laf_VolumeMeter = Content.createLocalLookAndFeel();
laf_VolumeMeter.registerFunction("drawMatrixPeakMeter", function(g, obj)
{
	var a = obj.area;
	var average;

	// Get the average of all the peaks (sum the stereo basically)
	for (x in obj.peaks)
		average += x;
		
	average /= obj.peaks.length;
	
	// Draw the background
	g.setColour(obj.itemColour);
	g.fillRoundedRectangle(a, 5);
	
	// Draw the level
	g.setColour(obj.itemColour2);
	
	if (obj.isVertical)
		g.fillRoundedRectangle([a[0], a[3] - a[3] * average, a[2], a[3] * average], 5);
	else
		g.fillRoundedRectangle([a[0], a[1], a[2] * average, a[3]], 5);
});

for (v in volumeMeters) {
	v.setLocalLookAndFeel(laf_VolumeMeter);
}

the Meter1..x floating tiles have these Data settings

{
  "ProcessorId": "Hat",
  "Index": -1,
  "FollowWorkspace": false,
  "SegmentLedSize": 0.0,
  "UpDecayTime": 0.0,
  "DownDecayTime": 500.0,
  "UseSourceChannels": false,
  "SkewFactor": 0.3,
  "PaddingSize": 1.0,
  "ShowMaxPeak": 1.0,
  "ChannelIndexes": [
    0,
    1
  ]
}

They look unchanged and all meters react to all samplers, although every one has its own ProcessorID set to a specific sampler. sigh

[Morphoice]

@d-healey Dave (practicing, to get that set in!), as the absolute guru in coding, how would you go about the following problem

I want to use those columns to change the sample map as if the user changed the picked another eprom for the slot... I reckon buttons are not the best way here but panels instead? one klick should disable the others and load the map, I have no idea on how to store the sample-map name inside the button though, I can't use the displayed text and hardcoding separate arrays feels like there would be an easier way.... how would you approach this?

[d.healey]

@Morphoice said in only when plugin is visible?:

const volumeMeters = Content.getAllComponents("Meter");

Have you checked that volumeMeters does contain the references to the floating tiles?

@Morphoice said in only when plugin is visible?:

I have no idea on how to store the sample-map name inside the button though

Put the sample map names in an array. Use the button's index as the array index. So if button 0 is clicked you will get the first element of the array.

[Morphoice]

@d-healey said in only when plugin is visible?:

Have you checked that volumeMeters does contain the references to the floating tiles?

it does contain an array with 3 elements, which are the three meters in existence...

[d.healey]

@Morphoice Are you assigning laf to these controls anywhere else in your script already?

[Morphoice]

@d-healey you might be on to something there. I just took all the other laf into an extra script and when I comment out the include it seems to work, so there must be something interfering... I have to investigate

[Morphoice]

@d-healey theres another for loop to assign laf to the volume sliders which seems to interfere as it uses v too

for (v in volumeSliders) {
	v.setLocalLookAndFeel(laf_VolumeSlider);
}

if I comment it out the meters work but my volume sliders have no laf
changing the v to another variable doesnt help

[Morphoice]

@d-healey also super weird if I press pad1 meter1,2 and 3 moves, if I press pad2, meter 2 and 3 moves and if I press pad 3 only meter 3 moves.... although all are assign a separate synth. I can't make heads or tails of it right now.

[d.healey]

@Morphoice said in only when plugin is visible?:

as it uses v too

Encapsulate all this stuff into its own functions or namespaces and avoid using var. This will solve most of this kind of issue.
