Is there a way to make the GUI editor disappear after the plugin it’s finished? I think It doesn’t look quite right for the user inside a DAW.
Great question, thanks!
You are right, it shoudln’t be included in a released version. It is a compile switch FOLEYS_SHOW_GUI_EDITOR_PALLETTE, you should switch off when you are done.
You can find that in the Projucer when you select the foleys_gui_magic module.
Alternatively you can add it to the preprocessor defines. I have it set up, so it will never appear in a release build:
Remember to save your magic.xml file and re-save the Projucer project, so the magic.xml in the binary resources is rewritten.
This is my deployment routine:
- save magic.xml
- Projucer: switch off
FOLEYS_SHOW_GUI_EDITOR_PALLETTE - Projucer: re-save project
- back to Xcode or VS and build
Hope that helps
