Waveform doesn't save in Preset

[A Former User]

It looks like it's going through every button in the sequence when you recall the preset, which would explain why it lands on the Noise oscillator.

@trillbilly You can use a sliderpack to store and control the values of the buttons so they restore correctly.

@DanH this kinda thing (I'm using it for filter mode buttons)

/// DEFINE ARRAY

const var pfButtons = [Content.getComponent("FILTButton1"),
                       Content.getComponent("FILTButton5"),
                       Content.getComponent("FILTButton3"),
                       Content.getComponent("FILTButton4"),
                       Content.getComponent("FILTButton2")];

/// CALLBACK FOR PFBUTTONS

for (b in pfButtons)
    b.setControlCallback(onpfButtonsControl);
    
inline function onpfButtonsControl(component, value)
{
    local index = pfButtons.indexOf(component);

    for (i = 0; i < pfButtons.length; i++)
    {
        pfButtons[i].setValue(i == index);
        SliderPack3.setSliderAtIndex(i, i == index);
    }
    
}

/// SLIDERPACK3 CALLBACK

SliderPack3.setControlCallback(onSliderPack3Control);

inline function onSliderPack3Control(component, value)
{
    for (i = 0; i < value.length; i++)
    {
        pfButtons[i].setValue(component.getSliderValueAt(i));

    }
}

@trillbilly

do you start your radio buttons code with:

if(value)
{

..your code here

}

@iamlamprey Yes, buttons are in a radio group via the property editor.

@DanH Ok cool, let me try this. I havent even began using slider packs yet so its a good time to do it.

@Lindon No, I have them as radio buttons via the property editor.

There lies your problem, an easier fix than using slider packs - put the code in each radio button and make it execute ONLY when the radio button is on...

@Lindon I havent scripted radio buttons or used slider packs so I guess its time to learn both lol

-- what are you wanting the radio buttons to do?

I assume the buttons in your example code in the first post are radio buttons....

inline function onSinebtn1Control(component, value)
{
WaveformGenerator1.setAttribute(WaveformGenerator1.WaveForm1, 1);
};

Content.getComponent("Sinebtn1").setControlCallback(onSinebtn1Control);

so the way you have this coded each radio button will exceute in turn - the last radio button is noise so noise will get loaded...

but if you change the code to this:

inline function onSinebtn1Control(component, value)
{
    if(value)
    {
  WaveformGenerator1.setAttribute(WaveformGenerator1.WaveForm1, 1);
};

};

Content.getComponent("Sinebtn1").setControlCallback(onSinebtn1Control);

..then only the ON button will be executed on preset load...

@Lindon Just allow only 1 waveform to be selected at a time. I just found an easy solution that seemed to work, it sounds like what you were suggesting but without scripting the Radio Buttons.

simply by changing this

//Sine
inline function onSinebtn1Control(component, value)
{
	WaveformGenerator1.setAttribute(WaveformGenerator1.WaveForm1, 1);
};
Content.getComponent("Sinebtn1").setControlCallback(onSinebtn1Control);

to this

//Sine
inline function onSinebtn1Control(component, value)
{
	if (value)
	WaveformGenerator1.setAttribute(WaveformGenerator1.WaveForm1, 1);
};
Content.getComponent("Sinebtn1").setControlCallback(onSinebtn1Control);

seems to have done the job. Is this what you meant? If not, do you see any problems doing it this way?

EDIT: Just seen your comment, its exactly what you were telling me lol

[Lindon]

@trillbilly see above - yes thats what I mean - you need to add if(value) to each of the button callbacks.
