Everything compiles perfectly in the VSTGUI4 example/tutorial but the plugin window still won't appear in ableton live 9. Any ideas how to fix this in regards to that tutorial project?

Works in Windows though! I read up on the constructor rect issue. I guess I have to compile with sdk 10.6 for it to work on OS X.

Without you adding the getRect, even some hosts on windows won't show the gui properly!

To your gui class (header) just add:

Code: Select all

class YourGui : public AEffGUIEditor, public CControlListener
{
public:
...
...
	virtual bool getRect(ERect** ppRect)
	{
		if (frame)
		{
			CRect rc;
			frame->getSize(rc);
			rect.left = (VstInt16)rc.left;
			rect.right = (VstInt16)rc.right;
			rect.top = (VstInt16)rc.top;
			rect.bottom = (VstInt16)rc.bottom;
		}
		return AEffGUIEditor::getRect(ppRect);
	};
...
...

Sometimes I dislike splitting the body between header and cpp file, you know. May not be a good habit, but it simplifies certain things to me.
