Manage inputs

vvvv beta general
#1

Hi.

I am looking for an easy way of setting different inputs values at one time.

Example :

I have a midi controller

When I press a button I need different other values at different places in my patch to be set to values I have choosen before.

And the when I press an other key, other values choosen in advance should be set.

Example of simple application : a quad, a transform node : When I press a button, the quad goes to a special place, with a special size and a special color, all at one time. And when I press an other button it moves somewhere else.

Sorry if it was long but I think it is clear now.

Any tip will be apreciated :-)

Tks lots.

MultiFlipFlop and Switch might be a big part of your solution

Thank you for your answer

I found an easy way of doing what I want (see patch attached)

Now could you please tell me how to merge the two getslices in one ? I’m sure it is possible with spread but this is a weakpoint of mine.

And by the way, now that I found a mean of patching my problem, maybe someone finds an easier or better way of doing it.

Thanks.

do you mean something like this?

Mhhh that works well but it is not what I need, because this works for two parameters but not for 3, 4 or more… What if I want to set the color ar ths same time ? ;-)

Any other idea ?

Too bad, but because you cannort mix Colors and values, you have to make a little work-arround for it, split the values off the colors, select what you need, and convert them back.

The Getspread and a Cons node don’t mix wel, unless you use a Swapdim first. See attached patch, good luck.

you also may find my module-set P (VVVV) useful.
(can be found at kalle.Modules.VVVV)
“P” means Preset.

vvvv’s IOboxes (Value,Color,String) have a nice and often overseen feature: the “SliceOffset” Pin (is hidden by default).
you can store thousands of values in a small IObox and only view or edit a single value.
all edited values are stored in the patch containing those IOboxes.
the “P” modules let you access only the slices you need.

i am currently reworking this Preset-Approach and hope to finish it before upcoming Node08. if everything goes well i promise you that this will be a real hit.
