OK I see it was fixed at Aux1 Aux2 etc.
I have an idea, the only way I can see outta this:
There's no way we're gonna fit an entire name in there. And even with
a two or three dots ellipsis that leaves room for only a few chars.
So keep the labels as fixed Aux1, Aux2 ...
But prefix all *visual* track name texts with their track number in
their type of list (that is, the idx into /that/ track type list).
You know, like I did with the MIDI device names: "1: Track 1", and "1: MyAux"
So the fixed Aux1, Aux2 label numbers refer to /those/ numbers.
Only visually prefix, not in the med file - keep only the real name in the file.
Hm, I was thinking for *all* track types there, but maybe too confusing for
user with those multiple identical numbers
OK, so do it for Aux tracks only, since that's the only thing that needs it
right now. So "1: Aux 1" "2: Aux 2" "3: My Super Big Aux Track Name"
** Unfortunately I think I've just discovered that if you re-order two or more
Aux tracks, the order of the strip aux knobs does not change, I think
the values are pointing to the wrong Aux tracks after.
According to AudioStrip's constructor:
int auxsSize = MusEGlobal::song->auxs()->size();
if (t->hasAuxSend()) {
for (int idx = 0; idx < auxsSize; ++idx) {
...
QLabel *name = new QLabel(((MusECore::Track*)
(MusEGlobal::song->auxs()->at(idx)))->name(),this);
And according to the med file there's no way to link the specific aux knob
values to specific tracks.
So the aux knob values stay in the same order but the order of the tracks
has changed!
Am I wrong, did you fix that? (I'm just looking at code, can't run it ATM).
Or do we have a fundamental flaw with aux send value ordering not being
linked to track ordering?
Will check it out some more. Cheers.
Tim.
