AudioProcessor * AudioProcessorEditor::getAudioProcessor ( ) const

noexcept

Returns a pointer to the processor that this editor represents.

This method is here to support legacy code, but it's easier to just use the AudioProcessorEditor::processor member variable directly to get this object.

setControlHighlight()

virtual void AudioProcessorEditor::setControlHighlight ( ParameterControlHighlightInfo )

virtual

Some types of plugin can call this to suggest that the control for a particular parameter should be highlighted.

Currently only AAX plugins will call this, and implementing it is optional.

getControlParameterIndex()

virtual int AudioProcessorEditor::getControlParameterIndex ( Component & )

virtual

Called by certain plug-in wrappers to find out whether a component is used to control a parameter.

If the given component represents a particular plugin parameter, then this method should return the index of that parameter. If not, it should return -1. If not overridden, this will return -1 for all components.

This function will be called by the host in AAX and VST3 plug-ins in order to map screen locations to parameters. For example, in Steinberg hosts, this enables the "AI Knob" functionality, which enables hardware to control the parameter currently under the mouse.

supportsHostMIDIControllerPresence()

virtual bool AudioProcessorEditor::supportsHostMIDIControllerPresence ( bool hostMIDIControllerIsAvailable )

virtual

Override this method to indicate if your editor supports the presence or absence of a host-provided MIDI controller.

Currently only AUv3 plug-ins support this functionality, and even then the host may choose to ignore this information.

The default behaviour is to report support for both cases.

hostMIDIControllerIsAvailable()

virtual void AudioProcessorEditor::hostMIDIControllerIsAvailable ( bool controllerIsAvailable )

virtual

Called to indicate if a host is providing a MIDI controller when the host reconfigures its layout.

Use this as an opportunity to hide or display your own onscreen keyboard or other input component.

Currently only AUv3 plug-ins support this functionality.

setScaleFactor()

virtual void AudioProcessorEditor::setScaleFactor ( float newScale )

virtual

Can be called by a host to tell the editor that it should use a non-unity GUI scale.

setResizable()

void AudioProcessorEditor::setResizable	(	bool	allowHostToResize,
		bool	useBottomRightCornerResizer )

Sets whether the editor is resizable by the host and/or user.

Parameters

allowHostToResize	whether the editor's parent window can be resized by the host. Even if this is false, you can still resize your window yourself by calling setBounds (for example, when a user clicks on a button in your editor to drop out a panel) which will bypass any resizable/constraints checks.
useBottomRightCornerResizer	if this is true, a ResizableCornerComponent will be added to the editor's bottom-right to allow the user to resize the editor regardless of the value of allowHostToResize.

setResizeLimits, isResizable

isResizable()

bool AudioProcessorEditor::isResizable ( ) const

noexcept

Returns true if the host is allowed to resize the editor's parent window.

See also

setResizable

setResizeLimits()

void AudioProcessorEditor::setResizeLimits ( int newMinimumWidth, int newMinimumHeight, int newMaximumWidth, int newMaximumHeight )

noexcept

This sets the maximum and minimum sizes for the window.

If the window's current size is outside these limits, it will be resized to make sure it's within them.

If you pass in a different minimum and maximum size, this will mark the editor as resizable by the host.

A direct call to setBounds() will bypass any constraint checks, but when the window is dragged by the user or resized by other indirect means, the constrainer will limit the numbers involved.

Note that if you have set a custom constrainer for this editor then this will have no effect, and if you have removed the constrainer with setConstrainer (nullptr); then this will re-add the default constrainer with the new limits.

setResizable

getConstrainer()

ComponentBoundsConstrainer * AudioProcessorEditor::getConstrainer ( )

noexcept

Returns the bounds constrainer object that this window is using.

You can access this to change its properties.

setConstrainer()

void AudioProcessorEditor::setConstrainer

(

ComponentBoundsConstrainer *

newConstrainer

)

Sets the bounds-constrainer object to use for resizing and dragging this window.

A pointer to the object you pass in will be kept, but it won't be deleted by this object, so it's the caller's responsibility to manage it.

If you pass a nullptr, then no constraints will be placed on the positioning of the window.

setBoundsConstrained()

void AudioProcessorEditor::setBoundsConstrained

(

Rectangle< int >

newBounds

)

Calls the window's setBounds method, after first checking these bounds with the current constrainer.

setConstrainer

getHostContext()

AudioProcessorEditorHostContext * AudioProcessorEditor::getHostContext ( ) const

noexcept

Gets a context object, if one is available.

Returns nullptr if the host does not provide any information that the editor can query.

The returned pointer is non-owning, so do not attempt to free it.

setHostContext()

void AudioProcessorEditor::setHostContext ( AudioProcessorEditorHostContext * context )

noexcept

Sets a context object that can be queried to find information that the host makes available to the plugin.

You will only need to call this function if you are implementing a plugin host.

wantsLayerBackedView()

virtual bool AudioProcessorEditor::wantsLayerBackedView ( ) const

virtual

The plugin wrapper will call this function to decide whether to use a layer-backed view to host the editor on macOS and iOS.

Layer-backed views generally provide better performance, and are recommended in most situations. However, on older macOS versions (confirmed on 10.12 and 10.13), displaying an OpenGL context inside a layer-backed view can lead to deadlocks, so it is recommended to avoid layer-backed views when using OpenGL on these OS versions.

The default behaviour of this function is to return false if and only if the juce_opengl module is present and the current platform is macOS 10.13 or earlier.

You may want to override this behaviour if your plugin has an option to enable and disable OpenGL rendering. If you know your plugin editor will never use OpenGL rendering, you can set this function to return true in all situations.
