Custom look and feel component ID

[d.healey]

Why is the id field of the LAF obj parameter always "" ?

[ustk]

@d-healey apparently you cannot get the id of a component from a LAF object. I asked Christoph a while ago because it would be good to get the id for more customization possibilities but he told me something like it's not "possible" to get it, unlike the other properties. I stumbled on that for a long time when making the slider LAF with no success. This is the reason I added the text property...

Speaking of the slider custom laf, why the heck are the sliders disappearing as soon as you touch them? Note that this happens only when you have 20+ sliders or something, and everything works perfectly in exported plugins. The issue only appears in hise.

[d.healey]

Interesting that you say that, I experienced the disappearing issue yesterday and I only had one knob on the interface.

@d-healey which version are you on?

Do you have any ideas what's causing it?

[ustk]

@d-healey Unfortunately no...
Or maybe it is related to the refreshing time of the interface since custom LAF functions are constantly refreshing? It is so annoying that I can't even touch a slider without seeing all of them instantly disappearing. So again, we need to deactivate the custom LAF until export...
@Christoph-Hart do you have any input on this issue?

[d.healey]

@ustk The refresh thing sounds possible. I noticed the knob LAF function triggers while the mouse is over the knob, even when you haven't clicked the mouse. Is it possible to disable this "hover" callback?

[ustk]

@d-healey Without being actually sure, I don't think we could deactivate it since it is part of the Juce slider behavior. But I might have wrong

[ustk]

@d-healey And moreover I think the problem would still the same when you click a slider...

[ustk]

@d-healey It appears that the issue is only slider related, I just tested with 70 toggle buttons with no issue, knowing that toggle buttons also have a hover reaction...

[ustk]

@d-healey @Christoph-Hart I think I have narrowed down what the problem is.
As soon as you create a path, whether you use it or not, it seems that sliders are disappearing after the same number of function call, like if something is not cleaning properly and error builds up.
Note that the issue is not related to the number of sliders unlike what I said above.

Try this snippet by just commenting the path line:

@ustk Yeah I had the issue with a single slider.

[ustk]

And then confirmed with buttons too

That's concerning, even though it doesn't show in the compiled plugin does it have an effect on CPU usage or cause other issues?

[d.healey]

I wonder if the issue is something to do with this loop in the drawWithGraphics function?

    g->getDrawHandler().flush();

    DrawActions::Handler::Iterator iter(&g->getDrawHandler());

    while (auto action = iter.getNextAction())
    {
	action->perform(g_);
    }

@Christoph-Hart Any ideas? Is it safe to use LAF in a project?

[Christoph Hart]

Wow that was an easy one - I just forgot to initialise the timeout logic correctly when calling scripted LAF functions so it threw a timeout as soon as the execution time was bigger than ~0...

[Natan]

@Christoph-Hart I reported This Execution Time Out Before
So It Was LAF Mistake?
