    • RE: UI feedback on tiny control

      @griffinboy said in UI feedback on tiny control:

      See how tiny the Ableton dropdown selection boxes and multiple choice buttons are in the background?

      Very good point! I've always disliked the Ableton UI for that reason but the point is, that's what folks will be used to I guess.

      @ustk said in UI feedback on tiny control:

      Could also be a 3 pos knob

      Yeah, I tried a 3-pos knob but since all the other knobs are continuous, having one that only has 3 positions feels a bit weird. Especially since I don't want to put markers around that one knob to denote the positions.

      Looks fine sublime to me

      Very good! 😂

      Yeah, I thought about a combo box but that's essentially what this already is - an 'always open' combo box.

      Does the Wave sector in the Motion section look too small and fiddly?

      Each wave is a fairly small hit target of 44x14.

      Any other ideas for choosing between 3 waves in that control area?

      @Christoph-Hart said in Export Setup Wizard Problems:

      I'm also thinking about a "Nuke HISE" tool

      Definitely, although it won't help users who have multiple copies of the source on their machine.

      @David-Healey said in Export Setup Wizard Problems:

      then you'd build HISE and your projects with whichever one your project requires.

      So does that complicate the setup script? Or would it just install both?

    • RE: Export Setup Wizard Problems

      @Christoph-Hart said in Export Setup Wizard Problems:

      Why? It's only building HISE, not your projects.

      I thought you have to build HISE with FFTW instead of IPP on Windows when you're making closed-source.

      I haven't started on the Windows side yet so I've probably got that mixed up.

      So does IPP/FFTW only come into play when building the actual plugin?

      @Christoph-Hart Since we've already chosen a platform at the top of the page, the C++ Compiler section could be simplified to just show the compiler for our platform.

      @Christoph-Hart Tiny UX thing but maybe change "Apple Silicon (M1/M2/M3)" to something like "Apple Silicon (M1 and later)" or "Apple Silicon (M-series)".

      M4 and M5 are already out and folks with newer machines might still head to the forum and ask if their chip is supported.

      Everyone likes to be a special case 😜

    • RE: Export Setup Wizard Problems

      @Christoph-Hart Maybe the script should know if we're building open or closed source projects?

      @Christoph-Hart said in Export Setup Wizard Problems:

      So basically what I want is to let the user tick which components he has already installed so that the script can skip that

      maybe the script should handle figuring out what's installed instead of trusting the user?

    • RE: Preset browser selection reset on project load

      @David-Healey said in Preset browser selection reset on project load:

      The same thing happens when reopening a DAW session with the plugin loaded.

      Wait... so what happens in the DAW? Obviously hitting compile isn't part of the flow here, so what's the confusing part for the users?

      Glad to hear about this now before I release a plugin. Hopefully we can sort it!

      @David-Healey said in Export Setup Wizard Problems:

      Was it an Apple silicon system? That might be the difference.

      Yeah, it was an M1 MacBook Air. It was a really nice machine, and everything else worked fine. I could run large Logic projects, have loads of running apps, multiple Safari windows, etc.

      It was just compiling HISE where it completely fell down.

      @David-Healey said in Export Setup Wizard Problems:

      Something wrong there, I compile on a VM with less.

      Yep, definitely something wrong. Could be the way macOS handles RAM. Could have been something else on my system.

      I bought a 32GB MacBook Air and it flies now, so I don't care what was causing it.

      seems easy enough to get rid of the liquid glass crap and tweak a wee bit to get back to a previous look

      Let us know how you get on 😜

    • RE: Tahoe, safe to update?

      @ustk said in Tahoe, safe to update?:

      And what about XCode? currently running 16.2, can I update to last 26.2?

      Xcode 26.1.1 on macOS Sequoia 15.7.3 working great for me here.

      I won't be jumping to the eye sore that is Tahoe anytime soon.

      Maybe you could just go to Sequoia?

      Tahoe doesn't seem to bring much other than the horrific UI.

      @DanH Amen to that! Apple didn't just drop the ball here. The dropped it, stamped on it, set it on fire and threw the ashes into a nuclear reactor.

      Hopefully now Alan Dye has gone they might turn it around. Although Apple aren't know for quick turns. Might take years to get a sensible UI back on Mac.

      then everybody can choose whether to run the script or use the agent.

      I thought the point of this whole endeavour is to make it a single path for beginners.

      @Christoph-Hart said in Export Setup Wizard Problems:

      Currently I'm fighting against some issues where the compilation of HISE chokes at the memory but I can't say whether this is an issue of my limited VM resources or something the agent does wrong.

      Sounds like my issues with compiling HISE on an 8GB MacBook Pro. Basically impossible.
