Hello list,
I've now got the audio dialog and midi dialog of the new Pd Preferences
menu working.
Now it's time for the GUI dialog. Some questions:
1. Are there hooks for saving gui preferences to the Pd settings file? I
don't see anything
in Vanilla. Has pd-l2ork implemented those hooks?
2. What options should be available in the GUI dialog?
3. How should it update? Immediately after the user makes a choice?
4. How should these settings interact with settings from within the patch?
The only workable solution I see is that things should just "work as they
work", probably meaning that patchlevel options (which are presumably
loadbanged into being) would supersede the GUI dialog settings. And I can put
a "Refresh" or "Apply" button in the dialog so the user can manually override.
Here's a start for the options:
1) canvas bg color
2) font color/size/face
3) text selection color
4) wire color
5) box outline color
6) box fill color
7) xlet color
8) active xlet color
9) link color (for pddplink/helplink)
And also
0) Dropdown list of presets for whatever people might want quick access to
like: Ubuntu x.x, Linux Mint, high contrast, inverted from default (black bg
with white text). (At least I don't know a way to get tk to inherit GNU/Linux
themes so this would be a workaround for that.)
