So, I figured ZebraHZ needed a slightly bigger GUI (1001x721px).

This is a work in progress and will take some time due to all the graphics involved, not to mention the re-mapping of everything.

Don't ask when it'll be ready, because I don't know.
Hopefully before the end of March, as I work on this project
when time permits.

Once I'm finished I'll tweak it to suit the regular Zebra, but I thought
it would be a good idea to start with the HZ version, since it's unlikely
to change much in the future.

If you're interested in following my progress, just check this thread
from time to time. Exited? I am.

Cheers
Jorgen

That's quite some work ahead

You could start with enabling the editor, selecting the top most pane, pressing x (on Win right-click into the grey void and select X-forms) and scaling things by 125% or so...

Now you tell me how you will replace the knobs, I'd swear it is impossible!

Cheers,

Wow, very interesting... is there a plan to have the various modules in different color, like Unempty Dark Horse?

Thanks,
Mario

Thanks everyone!

@ Urs: Thanks! The editor seems prone to crash the host a lot.
I also lose all my /*comments*/
Besides, I'm ca 25% done anyway.

@mabian: Maybe.
I'm trying out different things, like the Diva filters ^^

@ Howard: Not infinitely?

@ Totolitoto: You need to declare the graphics.
eg:

Code: Select all

GRAPHIC name='Knob45_A-Uni' path='4' type='multi'
GR_PROPERTY graphic='Knob45_A-Uni' name='width' id='0' value='45.00'
GR_PROPERTY graphic='Knob45_A-Uni' name='height' id='0' value='45.00'
GR_PROPERTY graphic='Knob45_A-Uni' name='scalable' id='0' value='yes'

then:

Code: Select all

PROPERTY control='Knob 352' name='graphics' id='0' value='GreyKnobBackx'
PROPERTY control='Knob 352' name='graphics' id='1' value='Knob45_A-Uni'
PROPERTY control='Knob 352' name='graphics' id='2' value='none'
PARAMETER control='Knob 352' port='Knob Value' module='VCA1' parameter='Vol1' valuestring='generic'

The animated knob should to be in a folder in the Animations folder.
The name of the knob folder would in this example be; Knob45_A-Uni

Sweet. Looks very sharp. If this has feintly colour-coded modules it'll be instant heaven

No.

I've always liked the idea about colour coding.
The thing is, like with any aspects of design, not to overdo it,
ie in this case; don't colour code every module.

nBeat, take a look in this thread for some ideas.

(Perhaps even make that exact skin sometime?

)

PLease don't make Zebra look like ACE. Zebra has nothing to do with analog emulation. I prefer it futuristic/minmalistic.
