HELP! connecting plugins (hints 4 source and destination?)

Post by nyukuri »

HELP!

I want to connect plugins, so that changes in one will effect the other. I do understand for the most part the UI syntax (sender, receiver, signal), but HOW do I get the HINTS for a specific slider, checkbox etc?

<hints>
<hint type="sourcelabel" >
<x>143</x>
<y>46</y>
</hint>
<hint type="destinationlabel" >
<x>143</x>
<y>94</y>
</hint>
</hints>

These hints for source and destination, where can I get them?
Thanks for your help

I do not think you can do this from the UI files, you would need to set up the signal handling parts in the code to support this.
