live.slider changes appearance.

[stefan-tiedje]

I have a Live.Slider which suddenly has diagonal stripes as soon I touch it. When saving the patch they go away.
It seems related to attributes I change with a message, but I want to get rid of it, its ugly.
If I change attributes programmatically there is no need to have the patch/object visually dirtied or dirtied at all...

The stripes are there to show you that you're changing the parameter, and changing the parameter's parameter is something that is going to affect the device. It also means that until you save, those changes won't be propagated to Live. Something to keep in mind is that although we don't constrain the messages passing to the objects, certain message will break your device, for instance you can't change the range of a parameter object dynamically, because Live needs to know its range in order to recall properly the automation/presets/assignment. Hope that it clarifies a little bit.

Yes, I learned by doing in the mean time. Now I use a fixed slider and a scale to accomplish the same...
