-MusE can create LADSPA GUI's (graphical user interfaces) from
-Qt designer *.ui files at runtime.
-This allows a user to create or modify customized LADSPA guis without
-recompiling MusE.
-
-======================
- Installation
-=====================
-
-Copy the file muse/awl/libawlplugin.so and muse/awl/libawlplugin_debug.so
-into a directory were Qt (designer) can find it.
-
-Example:
- if you installed Qt in /usr/qt4:
- su -c "cp -af awlplugin.so /usr/qt4/plugins/designer"
-Check:
- After starting the Qt designer you see all MusE specific widgets
- in the widget box titled "MusE Awl Widgets".
- If you cannot find any MusE widgets, designer did not find the
- muse shared libs.
- The MusE shared libs must have a signature qt designer understands.
- If the signature is wrong, qt designer silently ignores the libs.
-
-======================
- Environment
-======================
-
-Naming:
- The Qt designer files are named after the LADSPA plugin ID.
- Example: the "freeverb" plugin has the id "1050". A gui for
- freeverb has to be named "1050.ui".
- The plugin ID is shown in the MusE plugin browser.
-
-Path:
- MusE looks for *ui files at (museglobalshare)/plugins/.
- If you installed MusE at "/usr" (configured with --prefix=/usr)
- MusE looks at "/usr/share/muse/plugins" for *ui files.
-
-======================
- Creating *.ui file
-======================
-
-The association between LADSPA plugin parameters and Qt-Widgets is
-done by name. All input widgets which manipulate a LADSPA parameter
-must have a name starting with the letter "P".
-The "id" property of every widget must be set to the parameter index
-of the plugin,
-One parameter can be manipulated with more than one widgets.
-
- Example:
- A "Slider" widget which manipulates the 3th parameter of a
- plugin has the name "Pslider" and the "id" property has a
- value of "3".
-
-Supported Widgets:
- "AwlSlider" slider for float values
- "AwlFloatEntry" entry for float values
- "AwlCheckbox" to manipulate a on/off LADSPA parameter
- "AwlComboBox" select from a list of named values; sets
- integer LADSPA values
-
-(for more hints please look at the example *.ui files)
