New Layout / Interface window

[d.healey]

@DanH said in New Layout / Interface window:

It just freezes when I click the interface button.

Run your interface xml through a validator to see if there are any issues.

[DanH]

@d-healey ok now my new project just crashes when I try and open it

I feel like you posted about the validator on here very recently

[d.healey]

@DanH Try deleting or renaming the hise appdata folder, sometimes that can be an issue when switching to a new version.

Validate XML files

Upload XML and XSL files and validate their syntax

(www.xmlvalidation.com)

@d-healey I get this error - what does this mean?

1
This XML file does not appear to have any style information associated with it.

[d.healey]

@DanH I don't know. Send me the xml

[DanH]

@d-healey ok, which HISE appfolder do you mean?

[d.healey]

@DanH The one where HISE stores all it's data like preferences and recent files etc. I'm not sure where it's located on MacOS

[DanH]

@d-healey This kinda stuff?

[d.healey]

Yep that looks like it

[d.healey]

I don't see that error with the xml. Did you upload the file or copy and paste the contents?

[DanH]

@d-healey both

[DanH]

@d-healey same behaviour after deleting the appfolder, crash upon loading the new project I made and freezing when I click the interface button

[d.healey]

@DanH Send me the project (without samples or binaries folder)

[d.healey]

It loads here on GNU/Linux but tells me it can't find your fonts. Open your interface script in a text editor and fix your font file names. You have capitals where should have lowercase. Then see if the project opens. Are you using the same fonts across all the projects that won't open?

[DanH]

@d-healey Replaced all .TTF with .ttf.

My old projects open fine. The new project that I made just to test in NL which has no script at all won't open.

The old projects freeze when trying to open the interface editor (it opens the project on the interface editor ok, just when I dip out and back in it freezes).

[d.healey]

@DanH Try a debug build and see if you get any errors reported

@DanH New Layout has several bugs...Take a look at this post
https://forum.hise.audio/topic/4835/new-layout-branch-keep-crashing

[DanH]

@d-healey ok so I think I did the xml validator wrong

I get this error now:

Errors in the XML document:
	23:	236	Element type "Component" must be followed by either attribute specifications, ">" or "/>".

on this line

<Component type="ScriptFloatingTile" id="FloatingTile16" x="-2.0" y="0.0" parentComponent="PANEL_SUMA" width="62.0" height="20.0" ContentType="AudioAnalyser" bgColour="0" itemColour="4278291853" itemColour2="0" textColour="0" Data="{ "

@DanH Is that the same xml you sent me?

[DanH]

@d-healey yes
