Switchable GUI

Hi there,

I'm currently trying to create a switchable GUI box, so to speak. I have looked at Phonics VSTs and trying to pick apart his entrancer VST to see how to create clickable tabs. I have attached a example of what I have been working on. The idea is to learn how to make a part of a plugin that can bring up different pages. I am finding the MGUI/Wireless link thing a bit hard to fathom at the moment so any help with this would be very much appreciated. Can't seem to really find a good starting point for the GUI building.

Kind Regards

Lee

Hi again.

Managed to get it to work on my own before I checked back, How would I go about adding a background bitmap to each pane? I add to one but it shows up in the top module but will not stay in its own pane which is a pain (excuse the pun).

Regards

thats how i normally do it,
you can also set the view which should be active when the app is started (its inside the radio button module).
the difference is that i have an on /off switch inside of each selectabls view which can be activated when its id is selected

instead of having a big selector where all views are connected and what creates a mess with all the different view connections (its a big mess when you have a lot of different views to select) you have just one index selector which sends its index to each view.

That's what I wanted to realize with Ruby, when reporting the (for me at that time) unexpected behavior a week or so ago.

ohh, i couldn't follow the intention - now i see :lol: .. its still hard for me when it comes about views and to think in the oppoosite flow direction..

you are welcome, the other side of this clean "wireless" schematics is that if you don't name and group the things in a proper logical way you will have troubles to find the right module when you have to change something inside, and it starts to be really confusing too !
