Bitmap dropdown list ?

[lalalandsynth]

Yes, I also got the GUI lag fixed ! Its so fast now that I had to pull down all the meter speed.
But I am still at a place where the cpu is way too high , not sure what to try next?
Definitely GUI related -both the analyser and Envelope meters and I replaced the envelope meters already.

Any basic troubleshooting/optimizing tips , can I localize where this is happening , measure triggers in a section , something ?I cannot seem to solve this particular problem , but lets see what today brings

As for the dropdown and I now have some faith that I might be able to do this myself:
The "invisible" trigger window for the dropdown, can I make it so that when I trigger it again it closes the dropdown?
As it stands I always have to select something to make it close again which is counterintuitive.

Also, I would like it to close if I leave the Dropdown window area because now I can open a window , it stays open and i can open another one etc etc , and they all stay open.

Thanks for the help guys!

I just couldn’t resist trying to make a bitmap based selector system.

See if the one attached is helpful.
I think it does what you want and I’ve included comments in the schematic.

Take a look and see what you think…

I've also updated the listbox selector. The preset parameter is now in the range 0-1 for VST compliance and the trigger burst limiter removed.

Sweet ! Let me have a look at this

Closing properly on move away and clicking the top, beautiful !


As for the listbox, would you know how to make it close by clicking the top like it does on the bitmap selector, seeing that I have implemented that one.

Having said that I am all over that bitmap selector , might just use that instead.
Excellent !


Thanks!

Slight issue, I can size the top box smaller then the other ones , know why that is ?
This makes it so that I cant stack them close together if they are in these dimensions.

Also , it might need a Sizeable background Png for framing in the Selection png´s

Sorted the background issue, stacking issue not clear to me, too spaced apart.

I will also be using this to scale png´s

Two problems ,Lets say I select Alt single for one dot , and then steps for another , when I select it another time the list should reflect what was selected previously for that dot . Now I have the info in the dot but cant seem to update the list with that info when a dot is selected. So basically it shows what was last selected rather then me being able to input specifically what I want it to show which is what has been selected previously , hope i am being clear

i can make it show it but there is a triggering issue as it just blinks in and disappears but show the corrct index.

Also, would like to be able to designate an area around the dot where if I move the mouse out of that area the list closes, in case i decide to change nothing, Also do the same on a right click ...this list as it is, assumes you always select something.

Working on it but tips appreciated as this will be an ongoing problem with this list.
