It looks to me like there is a small bug in scriptlet together with rackscript. I declare a scriptlet parameter like this in a script with handle ‘Labels’:
// Called when a plugin block parameter value has changed
On ParameterValueChanged(parameterNumber : integer, parameterValue : double) from Labels
if parameterValue != 0 then
display.SetWidgetLabel(GetParameterText(Labels, parameterValue))
Labels.SetParameter(0, 0)
end
End
When the scriptlet parameter ‘something’ changes only the texts “None”, “l1”, “l2” and “l3” are retrieved by GetParameterText(Labels, parameterValue).
The function GetParameterText needs the index of the parameter you want to retrieve e.g. an integer representing the parameter order. You are passing it the parameter value, which is also a double. The only reason why it was working for the first 4 labels is because the parameter value was getting rounded down to zero (as the function was expecting an integer).
Change it to parameterNumber or hardcode it to 0 like you’ve done on the SetParameter function below it.
GetParameterText : Gets the value as text of the given parameter index of the plugin block if available.
It will work properly if you modify your Script as follows:
On ParameterValueChanged(parameterNumber : integer, parameterValue : double) from Labels
if parameterValue != 0 then
display.SetWidgetLabel(GetParameterText(Labels, parameterNumber ))
//Labels.SetParameter(0, 0)
end
End
I want to agree with you, but it doesn’t. Labels.SetParameter(0, 0) is only meant to make it retriggerable (that is du-nglish ), but I tried but also with commenting it out, it is not working. I’m afraid it is not that easy. Also interesting is that ‘l1’, ‘l2’ and ‘l3’ are getting retrieved, where ‘l4’ and ‘l5’ aren’t. The value ‘None’ I’m not too much interested in. As I said, that is just to make it retriggerable.
Thanks for replying, but the parameter is zero (0), it is the only one on the scriptlet. Please see the gig I attached… Furthermore, ‘l1’, ‘l2’ and ‘l3’ do retrieve, so it is not that simple
Maybe the attached project is not too clear: Please open the ‘interface’ of the scriptlet ‘Trigger’ and try the triggers for l1, l2 … l7
Please, keep in mind that it is just a showcase for the described feature/bug. Not something I’m using for production, so the coding is not very neat, and for this particular case, there are other ways to accomplish this.
@Frank1119, we won’t try to debug you GPScript here, especially because we don’t know at all what you are trying to achieve. We only answered about what you considered to be a bug. On this specific point, things seem to be OK. Here is the result applying my proposed modification:
That is simply wrong As has been pointed out to you, GetParameterText requires a parameter number, not a parameter value, the latter which is always only between 0.0 and 1.0
Now I get it. Stupid me, Bang me on the head, and I’ll get it. In this case, I could even simply hardcode the parameter number. Mea Culpa and many thanks
