widget type: select from list: strange settings when grid is on

Question

hi there,

I experienced a strange behaviour with the new widget type: select from list (btw  very useful, I would love to have some more options (eq multislider, ...)). the shown options are either rather arbitrary especially when grid is set (or I just don´t get the logic behind it, hihi).

thanks for your help

cheers from vienna

Answer 1

As an example of how to create a selectFromList:

• Unlock the VCS and double-click the widget (for example FreqLow)
• Set the Min/Max/Grid (for eample, 0 to 1000 with a grid of 200)
• Options menu>Set tic marks & labels
• Select labeling scheme "list" (or it could be numeric if you prefer a list of numbers)
• Click Edit button to create the list
• Enter a list of labels & click OK
• Change Widget Type to "Select from List" or "Select from List (Buttons)"

In other words, one first creates a fader with tic marks and labels.  Then change the type of the fader to select from list (or a stack of radio buttons).
