FFT GUI rearanged

Post by Tschoepler »

Hey there,

I have an issue with the way the parameter-animation-GUI is set up. especially the fft-gui. i put together a screenshot and an edited GUI.

Image

What really annoys me most is that
1. the midpoint of the bars don't align (an indicator would be nice). especially as there is no numerical feedback when setting the range of the animation-bar.

2. there is no numerical feedback. My idea would be just one numeric field that changes depending on which marker I am dragging. That would mean no drastic GUI-changes and still aligning midpoints. Same thing refers to the audio-range but the feedback could be rendered inside the audio-visualization (like the values of effects) as long as I am dragging, disappearing after mouse release.

3. we only have those 3 presets. Just replace those 3 buttons with a preset drop-down list.
And I have yet another idea: What if I was alt-dragging the animation-bar and it would scale from the center (like in photoshop).

I know GUI-changes can be a pain in the ass. Just my ideas ;)
By the way: I didnt resize any of the elements. Just repositioning.

Thanks Tschoepler. I'll add these to the possible features/improvements list. Don't expect anything very soon though. ;)

easy :) I know the list gets longer every day. Just good to see that the idea is worth putting it on that list ;)
