Ultraschall State Inspector - monitor and modify your Reaper-states

[Meo-Ada Mespotine]

Hey there,

during my developement-stuff I'm doing for the ultraschall.fm-project, I came across the need of a way of monitoring states(external, toggle command, project-states, key-value-stores of ini files, like reaper.ini, etc, etc) of Reaper easily.
So I made one during the last two weeks and it came quite handy for me since then.
Maybe you have use for it as well.

You can easily add, change states. You can also run actions from within the Inspector, so you can build up a list of often used actions, that you can run easily, without having to work with thousands of keyboard-shortcuts or the action-list time and again.

Cheers and feel free to suggest things, that you'd love to see as well in the Inspector...

You can get the Ultraschall Inspector by installing my Ultraschall-API:
https://mespotin.uber.space/Ultrasch...How_to_Install

Run the action for installing the developer tools(filter for "Ultraschall" and "Developer" in the actionlist) and the State Inspector(among other tools) should appear in the actionlist.

Hi,

Pretty complex script !

I usually only put action on toolbars for that ^^

Well done !

Hey Mespotine, Any chance we could have that but for gmem?
For now I print all my gmems in Ext_states so that I can monitor them, Would be nice to monitor them directly...
by gmem, I'm talking about this:

Nice idea, hadn't thought about that yet.

I'm still in early plannings of a completely revamped StateInspector (including Config Vars, editable StateChunks, etc) and would try to include that as well in the process.

Hey Mespotine.
Thanks again for this inspector. It's very useful
Anyways we can label the GMEM states? Give them meaningful names on the gui?

[Meo-Ada Mespotine]

Maybe with v3 somewhen this year.
I need to rewrite everything, as this script is my very first gui-script and full of ugly code.

Can you make a mockup, which shows, how you would like to have it?

[lexaproductions]

Hi Mespotine, I never got back to you about this:
Simply add a third line to the dialog named label
then in the GUI:
now it is like this
|GMEM [gmemSection] -> index:##: [VALUE]

It would be cool to have something like this
|GMEM [gmemSection] -> [LABEL] -> index:##: [VALUE]

What do you think?

[Meo-Ada Mespotine]

I'll see, what I can do. Will be part of the next Ultraschall-API devcycle.

Link in first post doesn't seem to work (here) btw.

[Meo-Ada Mespotine]

Yeah, it's part of the Ultraschall-API now. I'll update the first post.

Hm..it doesn't seem to work for me.
This is what I see in action list after having run the action "Script: ltraschall_Add_Developertools_To_Reaper.lua" (sidenote: It says "ltraschall_.." instead of "Ultraschall_..":



No state inspector script afaict.

Any ideas? Thanks.

edit:
It worked adding the 'ultraschall_developertool_StateInspector.lua' script manually to action list, so no problem.

[Meo-Ada Mespotine]

Ok, this is a bug. Will be fixed in the next US-API-release.

Thanks for reporting

The Ultraschall State Inspector now supports monitoring of config-vars as well.

Now available in your most favorite Ultraschall-API
