Installing Samples Dialog....

[Matt_SF]

@danh reviving this old topic... Did you had chance making this work ? It's still not working here (Win-VS17) no matter what combo I use.
Only 1 HISE sourcecode, cleared the cache, added flags in export settings / changed them in projucer file... Nothing is working...

EDIT : to be more precise, disabling the INSTALL SAMPLE DIALOG seems to work but not the LOCATE SAMPLE DIALOG.

@matt_sf I never got those to work if I remember correctly, I just heavily edited the text that appears with it in order to guide the user to what I wanted. My install process has it's own sample installer, the idea being that when the user opens the plugin for the first time there's no dialogue because the samples are already installed and the plugin knows where they are.

@danh I went for that solution either : on windows there's no problem, the user can select where he wants to put the samples during installation ; but on mac you can't do that in an installer and I thought it would be nice to allow the user to copy the sampleLibrary and locate it afterwards.
So in a matter of design constistency and customization I wrote a fully functionnal check location/locate samples system... only to discover I can't get rid of the locate sample dialog :beaming_face_with_smiling_eyes:
well... back to square one I guess.

Thanks anyway :thumbs_up:

@matt_sf I can confirm that this problem still exists

Anyone know how to disable this popup? I just need clean interface after first opening

[gorangrooves]

@parabuh I have gotten around it by having my installers install the sample libraries and connect them automatically to the plugins. Therefore that prompt is not needed and never initiated.

@Christoph-Hart any progress with this little bug? It would be great if we could completely remove this popups. Because now when i have my own installed and downloader im still asked about installation/relocation
