My panel is empty …!

[kurtsk]

I closed my panel after two days of work … and open it is empty …!

Win7 x64
Ctrlr: Revision = 1535, Build date = 2013/08/22 14:18:26, Branch = Nightly, Juce = 2.1.2, Boost = 1.52.0, Lua = 5.1.4,

I’ll look into that asap.

Can you provide the resources you used on the panel, looking at the file i see you used some.

[atom]

Nevermind, try it now, there was an error in the XML, it looks like something is changing the property name to “– None” and that’s not valid, this can only be a value never the property name.

excellent .. thank you very much atom…

[atom]

Can you maybe tell me what property/setting you have set to “14” or maybe you attached some modulators to a panel property or maybe you did something in Lua ?

I want to track down why this occured and fix it.

reminds me exactly of my issue some 4 months ago… http://ctrlr.org/forums/topic/panic/
maybe some of the similarities can help you (atom) to discover the cause (and solve the problem ;-).

Apparently this happened when copying a molulator of another panel …
I really did not do anything special …

I’m really new to this and I have not much reference

This is the code of the modulator to copy, hope this helps:

[kurtsk]

I can not find: http://ctrlr.org/api/
Some LUA reference

I would be helpful

[atom]

Well i think i might have found a place in the code that might be causing this and i added a safety check, i hope this will prevent those kind of situations.

The API is not there because i removed it, i hope to bring it back soon.

Most of the classes are mapped 1:1 from JUCE so the API documentation from http://www.juce.com/juce/api/classes.html applies, also please note there is a special helpful method called what(), run it on any object and you will get a list of available method for that object for ex:

m = panel:getModulatorByName("modulator-1")
what(m)

Again thank you very much,

I’m having the same problem. I’m trying to export restricted instances of panels and the resources aren’t there either in standalone or as the .dll.

The bpanelz opens fine.

Anything I can try to get this exporting?

I’ve tried deleting /AppData/Ctrlr and /AppData/Ctrlr Panels with no success.

Any other recommendations to get this to export? I’ve pretty much finished the panel and need to get it out to my beta testers.

Finally got these exported by opening the bpanelz on another computer in Rev 1655.

For whatever reason I cannot export panels with resources from my main computer. I can export the exact same bpanels from a separate computer and it works every time, but from my main computer it no longer works.

I’ve wiped ctrlr, deleted the AppData/Ctrlr directory, generated new UID, saved to new locations, reloaded resources, reattached resources to the existing controls, run as administrator and resources just do not work from this computer.

I’ve installed 1655, the same version as I have on my tablet and still no resources.

The exe files are about the right size (10MB), but even if I move them to another computer, there are no resources on the other computer.

Generating the exe from the other computer generates an exe with the resources that displays fine on that computer, but when I try to open the exact same file on my primary computer, again there are no resources.

I’m lost as to what I can try to get the resources back on my primary computer.

The bpanelz opens fine and everything shows up OK, but as soon as I make an instance or limited instance, the resources don’t display.

Is there anything else I can try? This is doing my head in.

Somehow that panel is working OK again now. One other panel is still half broke (half the resources load, the rest don’t).

I think what I did was to load up the bpanelz that was working in the standalone and then open the other panels (ie more recent versions) by double clicking on them in windows explorer, and then things seemed to sync up again.

I still think there’s an issue with resources being somewhat cached or global between panels. I think that each panel should go out and fetch the resources when it is opened, if they are not saved within the panel as a bpanelz. When standalones or instances are created, the resources should be packaged with them.

Are you using Ctrlr 1655? It’s a very old version.

[Puppeteer]

No, it was the version I had sitting on my tablet, so gave it a go.
