1. how can i make a shape control (filled rounded rectangle) control to accept a mouse down then change to white then when mouse up, change back to black. i think this could be done by mouse up/mouse down events but i cant seem to wire it correctly. i keep seeing the aspect of toggling an integer object 1/0 ????

2. how can i make a shape control (filled rounded rectangle) control cause text placed on the front panel to count up by 1 or down by 1 ...... i can imagine this could be done by the advance counter but i cant seem to wire it correctly.

i know these things must be something simple for the majority of experienced people to figure out. but i've only just begun to use synthmaker... so i cant expect to understand everything in 2 weeks.

wait..... i think i figured something out. when i mouse down on the shape control.... it toggles a number on the front panel to show 1,.... then when mouse up it toggles 0.

and after a little more work on it,.... this is what i figured out. i hope its not a problem to upload it?

i have this to offer from approximately 45 minutes - 2 hours worth of exploring/brainstorming on it....... its a rather simple switch, though, i think it would be appropriate.

A few rules keep this a friendly place. You agree to them once.

Shown next to what you post, here and in the app. It doesn’t have to be your real name: 3–24 lower-case letters, digits or _ (capitals become lower case, spaces become _).

    Open it in SynthMaker?

    It goes on the track you’re editing there, in place of that track’s sound, and into My sounds. Your other tracks stay as they are.

    Want to keep that track’s sound? Start a new song in SynthMaker first (Song › New song), then open this.
