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) + -- cgit v1.2.3
