FrontEndMacro: Display Parameter Text Instead of Parameter ID

[bendurso]

@d-healey Thanks, but I already tried that. It still doesn’t display the pluginParameterName on my floating tile—only the ID.

[bendurso]

@d-healey Or maybe it will in the compiled plugin?

[d.healey]

@bendurso Sorry I was confusing it with the MIDI learn panel.

Looking in the source I find this

So it should appear the pluginParameterName?

In the MIDI Panel it displays the pluginParameterName, and technically the style is the same of the FrontEndMacroPanel.

@bendurso It's saying it will use the component name because processor parameters don't have a name of their own.

Can you change it using LAF?

[bendurso]

@d-healey Mm but I'm using sliders, not processors. They do have names.

I'm not sure, I haven't used macros much.

[bendurso]

@d-healey Oh, I ended up here because the MPE of the global modulator wasn’t working, but the MPE of the macro was. Along the way, I realized that macros are far more customizable than global modulators.

To be honest this would be very nice to have - i.e. the frontend Macro panel using the pluginParameterName as its display value for Parameter - sure I could (I think) build some sort of LAF for this, but all I'm looking for is the name to be something end-user readadble - and isn't that really the whole point of the pluginParameterName???
