controlP5 updating
Nov 28th, 2007, 8:25pm  
I wrote sojame himself but didn't get a reply so here goes:

I need to somehow update the sliders that I'm using (about 6 of them) when
their variables change, I'm trying to implement shortcuts for "bigger/smaller brush", etc.

Is there a functions that tells the sliders to re-initialize themselves
with the current values ? I could just use it at the end of my
keyPressed() function and that would be all. I didn't find anything in the documentation about something like that.

If not, any idea on how I could do that ?

hm, i sent you a mail on the 24th my outbox says. anyway, here is the content.

you can try the setValue function for a controller
Code:

void keyPressed() {
  controlP5.controller("yourSlider").setValue(150);
}

taken from the ControlP5SliderSetValue example

in your case i guess this would be something like
Code:

void keyPressed() {
  float theValue =  controlP5.controller("yourSlider").value();  
  controlP5.controller("yourSlider").setValue(theValue);
}



currently there isnt  a more elegant way such as e.g. refresh() yet, but may think about it. hope the above works for you.
best,
andi
