| + | ===== Output Fixed Point Values in Labels ===== | ||
| + | < | ||
| + | When outputting floating point values into labels (knobs, pads, titles) Moazic generates either a 4 digit fraction string | ||
| + | like 42.5000 (if a remainder present) or an integer value without fraction. | ||
| + | |||
| + | \\ | ||
| + | To always output a positive float with two digits (even when integer), one needs to split the input value and output the computed integer parts individually: | ||
| + | < | ||
| + | n = Round value * 100 | ||
| + | f = Div n, 100 | ||
| + | d = n-f*100 | ||
| + | r1 = Div d, 10 | ||
| + | r2 = d % 10 | ||
| + | LabelKnob 0, {B: | ||
| + | </ | ||
| + | |||
| + | \\ | ||
| + | To always output a negative and positive float with a single digit, the split needs to work on the absolute value | ||
| + | and a conditional statement is used to output both variants: | ||
| + | < | ||
| + | n = Round Abs(value * 10) | ||
| + | f = Div n, 10 | ||
| + | r = (n-f*10) % 10 | ||
| + | if value >=0 | ||
| + | LabelKnob 1, {N: +},f,{.},r | ||
| + | else | ||
| + | LabelKnob 1, {N: },f,{.},r | ||
| + | endif | ||

| + | ===== Remove or add an entry inside an array ===== | ||
| + | < | ||
| + | Instead of running through an array with a FOR loop to shift entries to either insert or remove an intermedeate enry, it is way faster to use the CopyArray Mozaic function: | ||
| + | |||
| + | < | ||
| \\ | \\ | ||
| + | === Remove an entry of an array (shift left) === | ||
| + | |||
| + | < | ||
| + | @OnLoad | ||
| + | for i=0 to 6 | ||
| + | a[i] = i | ||
| + | endfor | ||
| + | Log {Before },a[0],{ },a[1],{ },a[2],{ },a[3],{ },a[4],{ },a[5],{ },a[6] | ||
| + | |||
| + | // Remove entry a[2] by left shift of the following entries | ||
| + | CopyArray a[3], a[2], 6 | ||
| + | | ||
| + | Log {After | ||
| + | @End | ||
| + | </ | ||
| + | |||
| + | \\ | ||
| + | === Insert an entry into array (shift right) === | ||
| + | |||
| + | Due to the inner working of CopyArray, the above trick doesn‘t work for right shifts - but one can use a temporary array to be more efficient than iterating over the array: | ||
| + | |||
| + | < | ||
| + | @OnLoad | ||
| + | for i=0 to 6 | ||
| + | a[i] = i | ||
| + | endfor | ||
| + | Log {Before | ||
| + | |||
| + | // Insert a new a[2] | ||
| + | CopyArray a[2], _tmp, 6 | ||
| + | CopyArray _tmp, a[3], 6 | ||
| + | a[2] = 9 | ||
| + | | ||
| + | Log {After | ||
| + | @End | ||
| + | </ | ||
