difficulty with Interface views
Hi, I'm new to Pluggo interfaces, and can't figure out why my VST build seems to ignore my plugconfig parameters for window sizes. Even though I'm using useviews 0 1 1 1 it still defaults to the parameters view, and my setsize and defaultview parameters seem to be ignored as well. (I just see the top left corner of my patch)
Here's my plugconfig:
#C useviews 0 1 1 1;
#C numprograms 8;
#C preempt 1;
#C sigvschange 1;
#C sigvsdefault 32;
#C setsize 400 320;
#C defaultview Interface 4 60 0;
#C dragscroll 1;
#C noinfo;
#C setprogram 1 "Default" 0 0. 0.8;
#C uniqueid 128 149 13;
#C initialpgm 1;
I've tried building the tutorial patches that use interfaces, and they work no problem. I hope I'm just missing something stupid here - this is driving me crazy!
Thanks,

I haven't double checked your plugconfig real hard, but is that uniquid
really unique to this plug-in as it should be? If you change it does it
help?

Brilliant! Works like a charm.. thanks!

Cool. Just so you understand what happened here (and for the list
archives)...
The Pluggo engine identifies plug-ins by their uniqueid number, as do
many VST hosts. So when you loaded a plug-in that has the same uniqueid
as another plug-in, that other plug-in's plugconfig was being used
instead of your plugconfig.
Having two plug-in's with the same id can have a lot of seemingly
mysterious consequences, so it's good to check when things are acting funny.
best,

Great - this explains the sense I had of something not being 'refreshed' in the build process. I kept checking my VST files to make sure the host was loading the most recent version. Can the unique ID be changed at will (to avoid having to re-save new patchers as new filenames)?
well if you use a host program for testing your pluggos
which makes troouble when 2 version of your plug-in
have the same unique ID, try another host, or remove the
older version from its plug-i folder when you are going
to test a new build.
Right - I think I was at one point overwriting my old plugins, but perhaps not. I definitely started creating new versions at some point.
Thanks!
