Populate samplemaps based on folder choice(almost working)

@ten7kur Have a look at the watchtable, the samplemaps names and start/end are looking weird...

Yea oops messed up along the way somewhere.
This works, but still only populates on INIT.

Im trying to send the SMLdir_select from onCATControl back through the script to show the new formatedSamplemaps.

global SamplemapList = Content.getComponent("SamplemapList");

const var Sampler = Synth.getSampler("Sampler");
const var sampleMapList = Sampler.getSampleMapList();

global SMLdir_select = "Folder1/Sub-folderA";;
global formattedSamplemaps = [];

global SMLdir_start = sampleMapList.indexOf(SMLdir_select + "/0");
global SMLdir_end = sampleMapList.indexOf(SMLdir_select + "/zzz");


    for (i = SMLdir_start+1; i < SMLdir_end; i++){
    var newName = sampleMapList[i];
    newName = newName.substring(10, 100);
    formattedSamplemaps.push(newName);
}
SamplemapList.set("items", formattedSamplemaps.join("\n"));

Would this solely have to be inside the onCATControl?

I did this before. It works half way. It populates Samplemaplist based on CAT Item selected but its not clearing the SamplemapList viewport. So everytime i select a CAT Item it just adds and adds to the SampemapList.

inline function onCATControl(component, value)
{
    var items = component.get("items").split("\n");
	
	if(items[value] == "A"){
	    SMLdir_select = "Folder1/Sub-folderA";
	    
	    global SMLdir_start = sampleMapList.indexOf(SMLdir_select + "/0");
            global SMLdir_end = sampleMapList.indexOf(SMLdir_select + "/zzz");

    
    for (i = SMLdir_start+1; i < SMLdir_end; i++){
    global newName = sampleMapList[i];
    newName = newName.substring(10, 100);
    formattedSamplemaps.push(newName);
}
    }
    else
    if(items[value] == "B"){
	    SMLdir_select = "Folder1/Sub-folderB";
	    
	    global SMLdir_start = sampleMapList.indexOf(SMLdir_select + "/0");
            global SMLdir_end = sampleMapList.indexOf(SMLdir_select + "/zzz");

    
    for (i = SMLdir_start+1; i < SMLdir_end; i++){
    global newName = sampleMapList[i];
    newName = newName.substring(10, 100);
    formattedSamplemaps.push(newName);
}
    }
    //else
            
	//SamplemapList.set("items", "");	    
	SamplemapList.set("items", formattedSamplemaps.join("\n"));
      
};
Content.getComponent("CAT").setControlCallback(onCATControl);

bump.
Anyone?

At least the simplest of question;
Why wont a viewport clear its items with:

Viewport.set("items", "");

??
Thanks

I think it's a bug. i just did a simple test and you're right, it doesn't work.

@ten7kur possibly try to insert viewport.changed somewhere in the code to tell the component to initiate the callback and update item list. I believe I had the viewport updating not to long ago, just not in an if statement. Might not work, just trying to help

@d-healey Apparently, you need to have at least something as a workaround,
like Viewport.set("items", "-"); or Viewport.set("items", "Select a category");

I think .isNotEmpty() is the cause:

void ScriptingApi::Content::ScriptedViewport::setScriptObjectPropertyWithChangeMessage(const Identifier &id, var newValue, NotificationType notifyEditor /* = sendNotification */)
{
	if (id == getIdFor(Items))
	{
		jassert(isCorrectlyInitialised(Items));

		if (newValue.toString().isNotEmpty())
		{
			currentItems = StringArray::fromLines(newValue.toString());
		}
	}

	ScriptComponent::setScriptObjectPropertyWithChangeMessage(id, newValue, notifyEditor);
}

I'll try to remove it...

Tried it but no luck..
I looked in the API, found "changed()" but it seems like it exists for all components Besides the Viewport..

It works by commenting out the .isNotEmpty() condition
@d-healey I'll make a pull request to your fork in a moment if you want this fix of course...
The fact is that I don't know if it can involve a wrong behavior somewhere else in Hise, so, be warned if you use it!

ustk

@d-healey What branch should I use in your fork? The develop seems more recent than the scriptnode one...

d.healey

@ustk yeah the develop one

ten7kur

@ustk You're a beast! for goin nitty gritty!
Wish i could be more code efficient!..not yet!

@ten7kur It's pushed on Dave's repo, you can compile it and test ;)

Awesome stuff! Just compiled and tested it!
Thanks so much for taking your time to fix this!!

Hopefully now i can finish my script
