ConductorGUI

Extension

Description

ConductorGUI is an Enivronment whose parent environment (defined by [GUIEvent]) is a 'style sheet' of default gui functions that determine how a Conductor is to be displayed.

Instance Methods

.conductor

.keys

.header

.guis

.stopOnClose

.draw

Using ConductorGUI

ConductorGUI defines default gui functions for the most commonly used classes within a Conductor:

The dictionary in guis can redefine how a particular key is to be drawn.

Entries in this dictionary can be:

a Symbol

the symbol selects a gui function defined in ConductorGUI,

an Array

the first element of the array selects the gui function which is used to draw the remaining elements of the array.

a Function

the function receives window, name and Conductor[name] as arguments

Examples

Here are some examples of how these features can be used:( // Default case c = Conductor.make { | conductor, a, b, c, d| }.show ) ( // Redefine default GUI, place items on one line c = Conductor.make { | conductor, a, b, c, d| conductor.gui.use { ~cvGUI = ~knob }; // change default GUI conductor.gui.keys = #[[a, b, c, d]]; // place them in a single row }.show ) ( // Override default GUI c = Conductor.make { | conductor, a, b, c, d| conductor.gui.guis = ( vsliders: [\vslider, a, b, c, d] ); conductor.gui.keys = #[vsliders]; // place them in a single row }.show ) ( // Use dummy keys to display CVs many different ways c = Conductor.make { | conductor, a, b| a .sp(0, 0, 16, 1); b .sp(200, 20, 20000, 0, 'exp'); // note: the fields below are defined in the environment of the conductor, // but the functions are actually evaluated in the environment of conductor.gui conductor.gui.guis = ( b: \numerical, c: [\rslider, [a, b] ], d: [\vslider, a,b,a,b], e: [\vrslider, [a,b], [a,b]], f: [\tdslider, [a, b],[a, b] ], g: [\numerical, a,b], h: [\radiobuttons, a], zz: {| win, name, cv | ~numerical.value(win, name, [a,b,a,b,a,b]); // using functions defined in GUIEvent a.connect(Slider(win,Rect(0,0,100,20))); // writing GUI function directly } ); // define the order of displaying those items conductor.gui.keys = #[a,b,c, [d, e, f], g, h, zz]; }; c.show(w:1000) )
