Custom custom keyboard :)

[Lumi283]

Hi, I haven't found any solution with:

Highlighting the keys of the custom keyboard when the MIDI keyboard is played.
Coloring keys when the note is mapped (it works with the basic keyboard, but I haven't found anything with the custom keyboard).
Are there any solutions to resolve it? Thanks.

@d-healey I have the tutorial memorized, and I don't think these points are mentioned :)

Your on note callback should call repaint for your custom keyboard panel, and the keyboard panel paint routine should, as it draws keys, look for Synth.isKeyDown().

@aaronventure How you know the id of the key item in custom keyboard ?
I tried g.id or obj.id, it didn't work.
This can be useful for modifying each key individually.

	keyboardLaf.registerFunction("drawWhiteNote", function(g, obj)
	{
	  var a = obj.area;
          g.setColour(obj.hover ? grey1 : white1);
	  g.fillRect([a[0], a[3] - a[3], a[2] , a[3] ]);
	  g.setColour(grey1);
	  g.drawRect([a[0], a[3] - a[3] , 1, a[3] ], 1);
	});;
	
	keyboardLaf.registerFunction("drawBlackNote", function(g, obj)
	{
	  var a = obj.area;
  	  var colour = blue3;
	  g.setColour(obj.hover ? blue2 : blue3);	
  	  g.fillRoundedRectangle([a[0], a[1]-10*zoom, a[2], a[3] / 1.1], 7*zoom);
	});

By ID do you mean note number?

Put this in your laf function to see all the properties you have available:

Console.print(trace(obj));

[aaronventure]

@Lumi283 You can call Console.print(trace(obj)); in your LAF function to see all the properties of the obj object. One of these should be note number.
