I have been using the tcp. FX List as shown above for the past year and a half, but I have not been fond of the way the FX List panels squeeze into two columns when I have 4 or more FX in the stack.
Last night I revised the rtconfig code and made some changes.
I used the code shown below.
; begin FX list
;**FTC MOD: FX-list on the right side**
; Verical length of FX-list section (default: 100)
; the default 100 creates 4 slots in the McCue Theme. I extended it to 160 to add more slots before a 2nd column occurs
set fxparm_len 160
; Maximum number of columns when not enough space (default: 2)
;setting columns to 1 keeps another column from squeezing the first one
set fxparm_num_columns 1
; FX height
set fx_height 16
; Right margin (default: 7)
;;;set fxparm_margin_r 7
; Top margin (default: 7)
;;;set fxparm_margin_t 4
;;;set fxparm_x - tcp.size{0} fxparm_len{0}
set fxparm_y h>25 fxparm_margin_t
set fxparm_w - fxparm_len{0} fxparm_margin_r{0}
set fxparm_h - h * 2 fxparm_y{0}
; set tcp.fxparm [fxparm_x{0} fxparm_y{0} fxparm_w{0} fxparm_h{0} 1 0 1 0]
; change [274 4 100 76] to [274 4 100 160] when extending length of FX list to 160
set tcp.fxparm [274 4 100 160]
set fxparm_min_w - / fxparm_w{0} fxparm_num_columns fxparm_margin_r
set tcp.fxparm.font [01 fx_height{0} fxparm_min_w{0} fxparm_w{0} -1]
set tcp.fxparm.margin [3 0 3 0 0 0 0.5]
;;;set fxembed_len - fxparm_x{0} 16
;;;set tcp.fxembed [8 80 fxembed_len{0} 0 0 0 1 1]
;** END of mod**
; end FX list
I am glad that there is an option to prevent the column squeeze, and I like how the additional FX list panels are continued, but on the tracks where I am only using 3 or less FX the panels appear to overrun the tcp. panel and it looks a little sloppy.
