Hi!
I'm a little bit confused by this preset stuff... here is the schematic:
OSM: http://urlaubszeit.de/maik/preset.osm
The Store Strlen module is just a StrLen connected to a VST parameter module.
If I turn the knob, it works as usual ... the value changes. When I enter the a string in the string field, the float field displays the string length... so far so good. But when I press enter, or click somewhere with the mouse, the strlen value jumps back to the stored value. why? The knob doesn't jump back after turning it, so why ?
Thanks
the confused 🙂

Something definately strange there... but if you coerce it to a float before it gets to the VST Parameter primitive it will fix it...
Looks like the VST Parameter cannot coerce data itself.
Edit - no that's not it... I replaced the VST Parameter with a new one and changed the integer value off the stringlen primitive to be a float to coerce and then it was working. But tried just the latter and it didn't fix it.
I think it's corrupted somehow...

no...that won't work... I can also pass a float value directly (without strlen stuff), when I press enter, it loads the preset value.

Definitely buggy...
Replace the VST Parameter primitive with a new one and it should work...
or at least it does for me. 😕

It only works until you save a preset...

Solution: Uncheck the Lock in Preset manager.
(If lock is set you have to explicitly fire the save trigger)
MyCo ·
If lock isn't set, every change is saved automatically... If you turn a knob, it is directly saved to the program... I don't like that, the only VST that does that is vanguard, and for me that is the biggest disadvantage that this plugin has.

I see.
When I set Total to a value > 1 and save a couple of settings everything works fine here
MyCo ·
yes, with lock set, the knob works as expected. But the Edit fields seem to be buggy.

Looks like a bug introduced in the last release - sorry about that. Will be fixed for the next one.
I'm pretty sure the knob is affected as well. Try turning the knob then move something in the schematic.

Yes... that's right
