SUBMITTED:panel variables to work if tileview="operator view

This is kinda important. Currently you don’t get any panel variables if a component’s tile viewer is set to “operator viewer”. As I’d like to display an operator viewer in my component’s tiles and still have a way to load the component’s UI on component select, the only way to get this would be to use the “inside” variable, which unfortunately is not updated when displaying operator viewers in the tile.

Any chance to squeeze this in? Don’t you guys need something similar when converting the parameter editor to a panel based approach?

“inside” goes on when you roll the mouse into a tile viewer that is in operate mode. All panel values seem to be operational. I’m assuming this was fixed.

not in 1771. If you set tileview to, for example, a DAT or CHOP, none of the panel variables work if you interact with the tile

Maybe I’m being stupid here but I would only expect these panel values to be changing when you are operating one of the panel gadgets - Container, Slider…

most of them you don’t need, but “inside” and “*select” are usefull to trigger some component stuff from the network editor

For example, you display some CHOP data in the tileviewer, but on lselect/inside of the tile, you wanna load that component’s UI into a parameter editor (just like any other native node behaves). But this is a hack, so maybe the RFE should be a set of tile_variables: “tile_inside” “tile_select” , …?
