Bool isOnGesture() method inside ParameterAttachment

Hey there,

wouldn’t it be nice to have a method inside the ParameterAttachment class that can inform you if the parameter is currently performing a gesture?
I just found a case where this feature could be handy.

Cheers,

This is a duplicate of my thread here, although it seems I accidently didn’t put it into Feature Requests.

So I am just linking it here.

Just adding it would be good to have it on the parameter instead of the attachment…

i would also have some ideas on how to increase the usability of ParameterAttachment. but for that people would first have to collectively agree that parameters themselves need more things. currently it only gives you the main parameter value. but it could also give you the current modulation depths to fit to the clap standard and also make it easier to add modulation systems to any plugin type. in addition to that it could transmit the locked-state of a parameter, cause in many plugins where parameters can be locked, that influences the way they are being painted. on top of that a lot of plugins have additional controls on each parameter, like one for setting the maximum modulation depth of the currently selected modulator.

i know most people will not agree that this should be part of the base parameter class, and therefore also not of ParameterAttachment, but even if the base parameter just used a dynamic array for different types of values, instead of a single float, it would enable everyone to decide for themselves what kinda values exist there
