VST Plugin Still Not Getting Keystrokes

Bump. Jules any chance of getting this looked at yet again?

I saw this: http://www.steinberg.net/en/products/cubase/trial.html
But you might not have one of those dongles.
Perhaps ask Steinberg for an NFR - I know we got more than one?

I’m also definitely interested in a fix for this. For me it happens with Cubase Elements 6. You can download a demo of that version without needing a dongle. And the paid version is only $100, if Steinberg doesn’t give you an NFR.

You can also get a 6 month demo with a convincing email to the main group in Germany. I don’t think you’d have trouble convincing them. This one is definitely moving up on the important-o-meter.

Wow, so this is still clearly an issue.

 

Texteditors don't work in ableton 9.  Any chance of a fix sometime soon?

 

If not,  I guess the best thing is to add a new window to the desktop for things like registration dialogs, and run it NOT in a modal loop (since those are a problem too).

 

Do I have that right?  Onward!

Yup, still not working for me.  Updated to the tip yesterday.

Fairly easy fix though, since they work when you add them to a new window on the Desktop

 

I just removed the registration dialog frorm the plugin window and did this with it instead:

 


        registrationCheck->addToDesktop(ComponentPeer::windowIsTemporary);
        registrationCheck->setVisible(true);
        registrationCheck->centreWithSize(400,200);
        registrationCheck->setAlwaysOnTop(true);

 

Since it stays on top, it is still just as annoying to the user, who is therefore still compelled to register.

Interesting workaround, but I have text boxes that are for my plug-in controls.  I would love to have a fix for that.

What's the status on this topic. I am using JUCE 3.0.4. Is it worth updating?

For the record, the following thread convinced me to upgrade to latest JUCE version:
