The View Attribute Editor shows the attributes of the selected views. The toolbar currently contains the two menus "File" and "Edit", the editing checkbox and the grid settings. View Palette + Global UI Properties Editor.Template Selector + View Hierarchy Browser.You can look at the sources of the included 'uidescription test' project how this works. This way you can store view settings like the tab which is open when the user closes the editor so that you can restore it when the user opens the editor again. After you've done this your VST Edit Controller will receive the beginEdit(.)/performEdit(.)/endEdit(.) calls when the user changes the controls and if the host automates the parameter the control will also reflect these changes.Īs an addition you can modify your VST Edit Controller to return specific parameter objects in the getParameterObject(int32 paramID) method for UI only needs, which are not parameters of your VST audio processor. The only thing you need to do is to declare the ids of the parameters as tags in the Tags editor (or use the 'Sync Parameter Tags' command in the Edit Menu of the Toolbar) and set the tags of your controls to these ids. If you've used the Parameter class provided by the VST3 SDK, you will get automatic parameter bindings between the controls of your editor and the parameters in your VST Edit Controller. As of this writing, not all VST3 hosts support this feature. Note Your VST3 host should support live plug-in resizing for optimal experience. To enter the UI editor you have to make a right click on it and choose "Open UIDescription Editor". If you now open your plug-in editor you will see a blank editor. Now you can build your plug-in and start your preferred VST3 host to start designing your user interface. Next you have to add two files to your project:Īfter that you have to alter your project settings to add a preprocessor definition to your debug build:Īs last step you have to modify your edit controller class to overwrite the createView() method:Īnd make sure to include the vst3editor.h header. Otherwise the inline UI editor won't work properly. The new editor is compatible to the old one included in VSTGUI 4.0īefore using the inline UI editor, you must make sure that you use the Steinberg::Vst::EditController class as a base of your own edit controller and that you have used the Steinberg::Vst::Parameter class or any subclass of it for your parameters. Note You need at least VST SDK 3.1, any earlier version will not work. IContextMenu (show host context menu on right click for an automatable parameter).
IParameterFinder (find parameter under mouse).It automatically supports the following VST3 features: VSTGUI 4.1 includes a new VST3 inline UI editor which makes UI design easier than before.
