right. so. how would one make a box that when clicked invokes a color picker? theres a very specific reason that i need this in the actual ui, rather then inside and/or as properties, because the user (me, then) needs to be able to change color.

dont ask why :p i still dont fully understand the gui primitives eh. been watching alot of schematics lately and the thing that still really baffles me is the gui part of them, propably mainly because i havent read up about them. audio first, then graphics, no?

anyways, if anyone could solve this for me, i would be a very happy man. also, a very happy man deep in studying the solution 🙂

or some kind of rgb slider, any would work really. picker preferable though ^^.

do you want to get the standard windows dialog for color picking or do you want to get the color picker from the toolbox to change the color when you click?

i kinda made my own very crude version of it. read the component reference and found some info on that area.

@philter, doesnt matter really. i just need to be able to change an on/off colored box switch, thats it. how i change it doesnt matter really. 😉

    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.
