Im trying to make a generic keyboard spread parameter editor (see attached
csd file) - this is just the bare bones starting point ( an FLslidebank
covering notes numbered 36 to 84)

I don't seem to be able to initialise the table with any values however
using FLslidBnkSet (& assumedly i'd use a sucession of irate updates by
firing a preset instrument ultimately anyway, much as my table save already
does (thanks to Jonathon M for showing me that - JM are u still out
there?...)

can someone please either show me how this is done or help me verify a bug?
(im on windows & still on 5.06)

id ultimately like to be able to see what the current value is for the
slider im editing - is that possible?

also, when files are written with ftsave, & all that header data comes out
with it, am i suppose to be able to read that somehow as is with an existing
GEN routine?

i always end up having to cut the headers out & then load the info in to
GEN23.... seems kind of annoying / stupid...

Hi,
Can you post a simple csd to check?

Cheers,
Andrés

Thanks Andres

this code below doesn't work on my machine (Win 5.06) - but when i change
FLslidBnk to FLvslidBnk  it does!

which is the first time i have seen any slidbnk set operation work at all! -
tried numerous times a few days ago however & couldn't get it to function.
(however i had inverted min max values, table offset, a much more complex
scenario - the problem is debuggers want to see simple scenarios, which
isn't necessarily when the problems surface... catch 22 it seems...)

but on my system this is still "buggy", & from my attempts to utilise this
on the weekend i think the whole slidBnk 1 & 2, horiz & vert set up needs an
audit & a double check. 

I ended up scrapping all the code I had as not only was it proving
troublesome to implement the desired behaviour - but i came up with what i
thought was a better design full stop.

apologies therefore i can't be of more assistance.

but this code at least runs & demonstrates there is some sort of issue. but
i believe the "issues" are numerous & surface further once the application
is pushed into less "orthodox" implementations (although why the max slider
value is at the bottom of all the vertical sliders across the board i really
have no idea. i'm yet to implement a vertical slider who's output didn't
require a converted recalculation before output for some reason or other) 

just to reiterate slidBank2 proved equally as unco-operative...

good luck. thankfully from my perspective i can report this has little
remaining relevance...

I'm looking fwd to 5.08 - at which time i promise i'll start trying to more
comprehensively catagog the numerous difficulties & unexpected behaviours
(or lack of behaviours) i seem to keep encountering from time to time.

but honestly when your orc is 500+ lines long, & all of a sudden some opcode
line you insert totally ceases to behave as expected, it's not always
possible to reproduce the "error" from a simple example in order to make a
neat presentation to the list....

but i appreciate where your all coming from. we are all busy & looking to
spend as little time as possible chasing down problems....
