How to deal with Event Input type in either ISF Shader device and/or Max4Live wrapper?
I’m building something that requires triggers, and would like to use the ISF Event type, but don’t know how. Any ideas are welcome.
Btw, the project is to make a Sliding Puzzle filter. And the first trigger is to start scrambling, and a second trigger is to do one slide move.
There are a lot of the Factory ISF shaders that have a Reset Time button (a [live.text] in button mode) in their Configure window, which in the device is displayed as regular dial. Crossing over 0.50 in either direction will translate to 0 or 1, where 1 triggers the event. In a custom M4L wrapper you could approach it like this, which is also how the Reset Time button behaves:
I realize now that I only gave half the answer, as you won’t find a Reset Time parameter in any of the ISF shader files, since the parameter is hardcoded in Videosync. To see how it’s handled in the a .fs file, take a look at the Etch-a-Sketch.fs generator shader.
