Crash in my cascading knob tryouts

unkargherth · 1 Jun 2005

Well, i can see a couple of strange things

On the module cloned 16 times ( the one with "before" , and "Bus" input and "after" output"

1.- I'm not sure if View Type can pass through a bus 2.-The redaw is triggered by ... nothing ??? 3.- The multiplex has no index conected to it 4.- Coneceting a view to a string ( multiplex outpuit). Probably i do an empty submodule only with a fixed view -input instead of the string

General suggestions: Use parent /child pairs to throw the view inside the 16 cloned modules Clear the redraw from cloned modules , and substituute it fora Redraw area in main module, triggered by the float out of knob

Can`t help more because i can understand what it is supposed to do

Its basically a prototype for an idea that I had. Something about a hybrid Vector-Frame/Vector Knob type. I suppose this will be my "the next biggest shit" idea to put out, just be excited ;D

And thanks! Will see if I can clean it up a little. Still I think that the devs should have a look into it as SM should not crash like this.

It will not stay with these cascaded modules by the way. Surely loops are the better way to go!

I agree, every crash is important to fix i think as fixing them now will help stop any new bugs from happening later on.

Hi skOre,

Like you say, this certainly shouldn't crash. I suspect it's creating an infinite loop. Shouldn't be too hard to fix.

Thanks.
