HISE lag

[d.healey]

The last few days I've noticed HISE feels more sluggish. Is it just me?

I think it's since the shortcut editing was added. I also notice as I click different windows they each flash a green outline for a moment.

@d-healey yep noticed the green thingie too along with a graphic bug when opening the colour pickers in the interface designer.

About HISE being laggy I can't say right now, I've been only using my macBookAir these past days, and it is not at ease running HISE

[d.healey]

I'm noticing it particular when opening menus. After I open them once or twice they go back to normal speed.

That's a feature not a bug. If you're assiging shortcuts to focus changes, this is pretty helpful to see where the party is happening.

But yeah, I'm also noticing a bit of a lag, now that you mention it. I'll take a look why...

@d-healey ...but not this, I didn't notice anything with the menus here. They are opening at normal speed

@Matt_SF Do you have include scripts in your project? With a blank HISE project I don't see this lag but with a project loaded with 20 or so includes I see it. I also notice general lag when clicking around in the script editor.

[Matt_SF]

@d-healey on a black project : no lag.

In my current project I do have 'includes' files. If I launch it, without touching anything I can notice a small delay when clicking on the menu, BUT I couldn't be sure it's because of a bug or because of my computer : I have a bunch of LAF functions going on and my mac doesn't handle them well....

After launching the project, if I close the interface designer, on the first click the menus seem to react without delay...

I won't be at home before tomorrow afternoon so I won't be able to try it on a decent computer...

[Matt_SF]

@d-healey @Christoph-Hart following up : I just tested the menus on my PC with multiple projects which include includes (!), and there's no lag, the menus react as quickly as usual...

[d.healey]

@Matt_SF Are you on the latest build of HISE?

[Matt_SF]

@d-healey I'm on build from Jul 21

[d.healey]

@Matt_SF Yeah that should have the lag. I'm going to roll back through a few commits and see if I can pin down when the problem appeared.

[d.healey]

I've pinned it down to this commit - 6dbe3e3d8b8f4ec294317595137c5aa06ee78075

The one that introduced the green outlines of doom ;)

I really need those "I'm stupid" t-shirts... The build on my PC is 2 weeks old so of course I don't have the lag. That's what happens when you want to do things fast.

But the build on my mac is from Jul 21 though.

Commenting out the contents of this function seems to help.

@d-healey in that case I would say that the focus drawer has drawn enough focus...
