MIDI assignment works not for me in opened subpatchers

Post by bdhm » Mon Sep 06, 2010 12:08 am

hi,

some new bug:

I can not assign MIDI controller anymore in opened subpatchers of my MAXforLIVE PlugIns.
I can not delete them / or assign them new.

EDIT: "Workaround of clicking the track header that the device is contained within and then switching focus to the floating window works fine".

hi°
if you integrate a patcher-object into your plugin.
and you double click the patcher object - an extra window is opening.

normally I could assign the MFL objects in this window to MIDI controllers.
but some how this doesn't work anymore.

I can only assign MFL objects in the normal LIVE PlugIn window.

Ok I got it now,

well, I don't have any midi gear near me right now so I did a quick test with Keyboard mapping instead of Midi mapping,

it works even inside a [patcher]

please try this :

hi,
thanks for your thoughts.

@ olivier: thanks for the test-patch.
but same result / problem.

sometimes I can assign the MIDI controllers in a subpatcher window and sometimes not.
I can never erase the assignments in the subpatcher window. but I can erase them in the MIDI-Mappings-menu.

I have soon a rehearsal. hopefully I can fined a solution.

greetings,
bd

Sorry for the obvious question, but, and you are sure it is not because you use some Max GUI objects without [pattr] ? only Live GUI objects are "automation" ready AFAIR.

hi,
thanks!
good point - but I am using Live GUI objects.

and if they are not in the subpatcher - everything works fine.

really strange ...

ok, just out of curiosity, did you check their attributes ,"Parameter Visibility = Automated and Stored" ?
maybe something change the default value

hi°
I have checked: "Parameter Visibility = Automated and Stored"
so this is not the point.

thanks!

Seems to be a problem of the window focus. I have sent you an email.

hi,

ableton support can reproduce the bug.
it seems to be a problem of the window focus.

if I have two subpatchers open I can not assign easily MIDI controllers.
I have to click first the parameter, then the plugin track and then I can assign the controller.

so I wonder if I am the only one with this problem ?
anyone els ?

And mine has just developed the problem!!

Slight variation in that i can't midi map live gui objects (that are automated and stored) within a floating window.... And the same in that i can't delete mappings made directly only within Live's browser....

Must have only happened since 8.2

EDIT: Workaround of clicking the track header that the device is contained within and then switching focus to the floating window works fine... Thank god i found this post otherwise i'd have been hours troubleshooting it!!

Cheers
D
