Hi,

In some cases it would be useful to be able to get the x,y coordinates of a child module relative to its parent's front panel.

Unfortunately, even if you use the View Area primitive, you always get position (0,0).

This is actually a repeat of thread:

Can I access the offsets frin the GUI frontpanel?

And an addition to my post:

How to get position of module relative to parent ?

So please consider this for a future release.

Thank you

    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.
