VCV as plugin initial tests have been a success so far.
Was afraid that maybe the way it relies so much on GLFW would not make it possible to embed its GUI.. making a subpar experience IMO.
But that is not the case!
The hard part for the UI is sorted out, now need to cleanup all the hacking around and make sure it can handle multiple instances...
So far so good though.
Doing some experiments with direct github.com/ocornut/imgui support in DPF.
One great thing from imgui is the absurd amount of existing widgets made for it.
So with a few lines of code I have a full blown text editor.
Integrates well into other things (ie, plugin GUIs)
Just need to sort out a few details regarding text/user input, and we are set for expanding the stuff DPF can do :D
I am truly amazed by the amount that some people really don't care about privacy, somehow it got to my municipal public transport having "Lorem ipsium" place holder text for its cookie usage descriptions π€¦ββοΈ
Am I the first to see this? How is this even a thing?
Already wrote to them complaining, wtf...
Hi. I need some quick testing from people using Linux and High-DPI / >1 Desktop Scale Factor.
Just added support for this on DPF Linux side, so testing is very much appreciated.
To test:
```
git clone --recursive -b develop https://github.com/DISTRHO/DPF.git
make -C DPF
./DPF/bin/d_info
```
The test requires OpenGL and X11 develop packages installed and a working audio setup (if you are on archlinux you should always have this)
Let me know if it scales properly, see screenshot for an example
Slowly getting DPF Cairo backend up to speed.
Same codebase, totally different targets, same behaviour.
Screenshot shows the Demo/test tool to render a few things, including subwidgets.
(opengl has the nanovg test, which is not possible on cairo for obvious reasons)
Only 2 things left for Cairo backend:
1. load png images from memory (instead of large raw data like opengl side does)
2. get the built-in DPF image widgets compatible with cairo.
Those 2 already done in a PR, but need adjustment
One of the perks of modular open-source design.
We can just take stuff other people did, that is also open-source, and put it together with ours.
Jean Pierre Cimalando was doing some tests and we got DPF rendering "Dear ImGui" [1] stuff for audio plugin usage.
It does really work! Of course with some caveats, but looks quite promising.
