I’ve recently downloaded cabbage and started making a midi control plugin for a synthesizer the Roland S-1 as a test project to get to know it and I’m trying to make it look nice. Next is making the knobs animated using filmstrips. I’ve borrowed a nice LCD from someone here that I found and it works but the values of the knobs are still not showing but I’ll get there. Was I wrong to start with Cabbage 2? I’m on a Mac and did not want to download a 24gb xcode framework for other tools to make a plugin. I like that it’s small and clean.
this is my plugin that I’m working on.
Hi @Terracides, welcome to the forum. I’d have to say that making UIs with Cabbage 3 offers far more in terms fo customisation. But it’s not quite there yet. If you’re new to Csound/Cabbage then Cabbage2 might be the path of least resistance.
Thank you Roy, I think for now i’ll stick to Cabbage 2. It’s a great plugin thank you for you time to make the world a better place. Actually it does everything I want, I can just solve the graphics using images and animations. Even the text can be an overlay so
Another trick that works quite well is to overlay images, but set interactable to 0. This way mouse clicks and pass through the images. There isn’t a whole lot you can’t actually do with graphics in Cabbage 2, apart from animations and transitions.
