CsoundQt 0.9.3 release candidate

Hi,

Although somewhat finished in haste, new version of CsoundQt is ready for testing

There are currently OSX binaries (if Michale gets time to prepare Windows ones, they will appear there as well).

https://github.com/CsoundQt/CsoundQt/releases

Please test and let know if there are any problems.

I will make also video tutorials but here shortly - the main new features are:

- table editor, now only for GEN07 tables: View->Show Table editor

- Renewed conversion of CsoundQt windgets to Cabbage definitions so you can easily start your work in CsoundQt and prepare it for Cabbage or CabbageStudio

Edit->Insert/Update CabbageText

- qt based html support - perhaps the most important change in this release - in builds on all platforms, does not need CEF dependency and lets you to work

or run you csd files that you can use also in Csound for Android, Csound Node etc. You can also work with html files as written for pnacl or other web applications - so CsoundQt is with you whatever you need to prepare :)

We have been working hard with Michael Gogins to rewrite the code for html5 support based only on Qt libraries and make it happen. .

Well, it is basically ready but needs more work and testing so it will not be part of official installer yet but for people who want to try it out, there is now a OSX bundle

https://github.com/CsoundQt/CsoundQt/releases/download/0.9.3-beta/CsoundQt-0.9.3-beta-webkit_html.dmg

Or you can build it from the "qthtml" branch of CsoundQt sources:

https://github.com/CsoundQt/CsoundQt/tree/qthtml

There are two options to build it - with Qt up to version 5.5 you can use QtWebkit engine or from with versions from 5.6 up using QtWebEngine (this is available since Qt 5.4) - you need to set the option either

CONFIG += html_webkit

CONFIG += html_webengine

You can meet different problems, but all testing is very welcome!

Please give feedback in coming days, the Csound 6.08 release including this version will be preapared next week!

Thanks!

Re: CsoundQt 0.9.3 release candidate

Excited for the new release and all these fantastic new features.

I am working with both betas now.

1st problem:

MacOS 10.12.1

When I reset defaults on either version.

Console defaults to white - with black text.

Next time I open the app. Console defaults to black - with black text.

(quite difficult to read this way ;-)

Configure->General and change background to white.

- still black.

Reset preferences to default, quit app, open again for 1st time..

- console background is white! Yeah!

- until... I close and and reOpen the app.

then... console background is black again.

this could be something lurking on my system... but what?

Re: CsoundQt 0.9.3 release candidate

PS.

Table editor - Awesome.

Cabbage Widget Converter - coming along.

- I tried converting some of the "examples"

- most widgets are there, but they seem to be stepping on each other because of fontsize, etc.

- a number of examples that I tried would not render in cabbage.

- trapped did - but.... the buttons did not work.
