List & Index Extractors
DH_IndexExtractor
A simple module that extracts the index of the selected item in an
old-style List Entry type control, so that it can be used as input to
modules such as the
DH_ControlOverlay module.
List - Connects to the List Entry control.
Index - Outputs the index of the selected item.
For example:
Note: Connecting the DH_IndexExtractor's List pin to a the List Out pin of a Patch Mem - List module will not work. Instead, use a DH_ListExtractor connected to the Value pin of the Patch Mem - List module.
Won't Work!
OK!
DH_ListExtractor
Performs the same function for blue-background GUI list values that the DH_IndexExtractor does for the old-style List Entry controls. It also has some additional capabilities:
It uses the 2-way nature of GUI connections to operate in either direction. The list selection can be changed not only from a sub-control connected to the left-hand List pin, but also when the values of the right-hand List or Index pins are changed.
It outputs the text of the selected item.
It outputs the entire list as a text string, with list items separated by commas.
List (left) - Connects to any right-hand GUI ("blue-background") list pin.
List (right) - Connects to any left-hand GUI list pin.
Index - Index of the currently selected item, or index of item to select.
Selection (left & right) - Text of the selected item.
List Items (left & right) - List as a comma-delimited text string.
