How to include the samples when building the plugin?
-
@d-healey oh, got it! Thanks
Do you know if it's possible to style this overlay screen?
-
@daniloprates You might be able to with the alert window look and feel functions. It's been a while since I've used it.
-
@d-healey thanks!

Is there a way to re-trigger this screen?
After deleting the samples and replacing the
componentfile the plugin didn't ask to install the samples and it's muted -
Yes, delete the link file in the app data folder and the screen will show up again the next time you launch the plugin. I cover this in the HISE Bootcamp too.
HISE Bootcamp: No Coding Required – Audio Dev School
A beginner-friendly course that teaches you how to build real, working audio plugins using HISE - without writing any code.
It’s designed for musicians, sound designers, and audio creators who want to bring their plugin ideas to life without learning a programming language.
The course is structured around two complete projects: first, you’ll build a custom sample library instrument, and then you’ll create a spatial audio effect plugin.
Along the way, you’ll learn how to use HISE’s visual interface to import and map samples, design user interfaces, connect modulation sources, and export your finished plugins.
Every lesson focuses on practical skills, and you’ll get access to guidance notes, cheat sheets, and supporting materials to help you stay on track.
By the end of the course, you’ll have built two working plugins - and you’ll have the confidence to keep creating, no coding required. You’ll also receive a certificate of completion to showcase your skills.

@d-healey great!
Do you know if it's possible to add a button in HISE that re-triggers that screen, in case the user wants to relocate the samples?
-
@daniloprates Yes you could script a button that deletes the file, the user would still need to restart the plugin though.
It's probably more user friendly to script a custom screen where the user can select a folder. All the functions needed for this are available in the scripting API.
-
Where in the scripting API is the link file in the app data folder referenced?
If one wanted to create a button to reset the sample folder for the user if they decided to move the samples. -
@jeffd You can use the file and file system APIs to access the app data folder.
You can use
Settings.setSampleFolder()to update the link file. -
@d-heale
ok let me try it.
thanks
