What do you use to store values ?

[chapelier fou]

Genuine question. What’s a good way to store a value saved with the live set ?
For instance, a ‘hidden’ live.dial does the job but what are the most elegant ways ? Dicts ?

[doubleUG]

if its one value then [int] or [float] with parameter mode enabled. Many values > [multislider]. Complex things > [dict]. Sometimes [textedit]

[int] and [float] have no parameter mode. You probably mean [number]. But yes, look for objects that have the parameter mode option. Also [pattr @parameter_mode 1] can recall a single value of any type with the Set.

Woah. I never knew I could parameter enable [int] or [float]. After all these years. I'm glad I did ask,
and thanks again, @doubleUG.

Ah, so I wasn't so ignorant. Thanks !

Still, I'm not originally a coder, but I 'philosophically' felt that it's bad to use a 'graphical' object to store values.
Wouldn't it be great if [int] and [float] were able to be 'parameter enabled' ?

Well, I just tried with [pattr] and [int]. 'pattr does not support this object'

The pattr itself is your parameter container. You don't need to bind to an object.
Really? This forum doesn't allow us to add example amxd device to a post? How lame!

You can copy/paste the code

Still lame. The other side has to create a new device first to try things.
Is this a security concern or why can we not attach a file to a post?

I don’t think it’s possible.

Additionally to the Live objects which are parameters by default, you can set the "parameter_enable" attribute for these objects:
jit.playlist live.arrows attrui button chooser crosspatch dial dict flonum function gswitch gswitch2 incdec itable js jsui kslider led matrixctrl mc.function multirange multislider nodes nslider number pattr pattrstorage pictctrl pictslider radiogroup rslider slider swatch tab table textbutton textedit toggle ubutton umenu amxd~ filtergraph~ gain~ mc.amxd~ mc.gain~ mc.playlist~ mc.table~ mc.vst~ mcs.amxd~ mcs.vst~ playlist~ table~ vst~.
No guarantee for completeness.

My bad, I didn't meant in a live set.
I should read the topics

I know...
Let's see if we can improve things in this area.

Well, [dict] seems to be really good for basic storage. I'll go with this.
