Hi,

There is something which gives me some trouble : I have a sub-patch which have inside several faders and one XY Pad.
In the patch that contain this sub-patch, when I click on it I can see all the faders in the right control panel but NOT the XY Pad.
The only mean that I have found is to set the visibility of the XY Pad to Window.
Is there anything to do to keep it together with the other faders ?

Another thing : this patch is an audio sequence. Is there a mean to tell to the sub-patch to make its controls visible on the upper patch, here the sequencer, like the option in Synthedit "View on Parent" ?

Thanks !

The XY pad has more than one input, so that's why it's not visible as parameters on the sub-patch (I guess). IMO, the simplest way to make the XY visible in the parent patch's control panel, would be to replace it with fader(s) in the sub-patch, and create an XY in the patch that connects to the fader input's on the sub-patch.

There's no option to "View on Parent", but as you're surely aware of, a lot the interface design modules shows up as inputs to the sub-patches, and ctrl-dragging will create a similar object in the patch.

Don't forget that you can also place some objects (from different patches) in the main interface where they can be freely moved and sized within one window. Using the preset manager, you can now also turn various objects visibility on and off, so it can behave somewhat like the Sequencer Live mode, but for only some select modules.

yes bsork, you are perfectly right.

I hope that the 3.05 is stable and I can focus on the interface of design of Usine. I will probably implement the 'show in the parent' option for visual controls and a lot of other things like that, to be able to create really nice an personal interfaces.
