@Phelan-Kane not my expertise field, but would that help?

@dannytaurus Yeah, keeping the colours tidy in your code is easier in the end. Then you can set the component colours from script when needed and everything updates automatically if you adjust something instead of copy/paste in all components...

I tend to to everything I can in paint routines, the less components in the tree, the happier I am!
That being said... In order to reduce CPU load, I still tend to keep fixed drawing (bg, mask, etc...) in separate panels so the LAF function job is only constrained to what is really necessary. I also keep all the math constants externally, unlike the example...

Other issue with the "multiple panel masking technique" is that when you want to move it, it can be very annoying, unless adding them all in an holder panel, which is one more component...

R0 = CORNER_SIZE

@dannytaurus I have two ways to treat this in one panel. The first one should be THE way but is broken for so many years, the second is dirty but works nicely:

• Mask -> still broken (I’ve made a quick fix but it still crashes exported plugins)
• a first drawRoundedRectangle larger than the green one, and with thicker line landing precisely on the outer edge of the green one. So you need it thick enough, and compute the precise coordinates, This way it is acting like an outer mask. Then draw the green one normally on the top.

@dannytaurus Or spare a component by drawing the path in a bigger area

@dannytaurus I reckon this has been added quite recently with the intention to remove the noise.
So if it always worked before I see no harm in disabling it.

@David-Healey Same...

@David-Healey Noice!
Have you had a look at the PR count lately?
AI's in the place...

@David-Healey unfortunately no it's not tied to the plotter methods...

Speaking of which...

https://github.com/christophhart/HISE/pull/984

I can't believe the math were wrong the whole time
-> upDecayTime was inverted...

BTW, did anybody find how to LAF the right-click menu?

@dannytaurus Lol, same colours...

@dannytaurus Good job detective!
I agree to the WTF, seems that developing new protocols of all sorts but there's still no agreement whatsoever in the way DAWs handle such a simple task... Shame...

@dannytaurus If others are like me, you record automation while turning the knobs, and show the recorded lanes... This way you don't spend your time scrolling like crasy

@dannytaurus said in Set order of parameters as listed for automation:

That's why I don't think it's worth all this effort.

That might be precisely where we can add value

@dannytaurus I don't know many DAWs as I know Pro Tools, but here you can always import anything from another session. But it's a bit overkill just for a plugin...

@dannytaurus I am personally pro user presets. Especially when you want to import the same FX/sound between DAW sessions.

@dannytaurus Yeah I tested successfully AU and AAX (not VST3 yet but it should be good)

I'll keep your idea in mind though because it seems very interesting.
In fact, it might be doable to add this as a layer in Hise so it's transparent to us @Christoph-Hart ?

@ustk But I'll stay out of this added brain-shuffling beast and stick to legacy, I think.
I might never add any new automation parameter, and if I do, it'll probably be for a v2.0 so I don't mind the break in my case...

@dannytaurus Yeah that's how I understand it, clever!
