No code. I just rewrote a hunk of Jambalaya to start organizing plugs by vendor. It is entirely up to the host developer how to organize plugs. IOW - this is DP's problem to solve.MIDI Life Crisis wrote:If some plugs do organize themselves and others do not, then there must be some code in the file that does this. Unless it requires a compiler to implement it would seem that users might find a way to get that info into their plugs.
OTOH, I have noticed that some plugs defy the proper sorting (IKMultimedia - I'm looking at your latest Amplitube XGear here). Why? Because the vendor name isn't exactly correct.
Here's the rule of thumb I think DP (and now an unreleased update to Jambalaya uses). If there is only one plug from a given vendor, just stick it in the menu as "vendor name: plug name". If there are two or more plugs from a vendor, create a submenu named "vendor name" and put all the plugs by that vendor into the submenu named "plug name".
Makes things much neater IFFFF the plugs have resource files that are consistent. But they don't all the time and this is where you find outliers like X-Gear.
Call the company, file a bug report.
The problem could also be solved by DP implementing a plugin manager that let users build their own plug menus - but this is a lot of work (I have at least one Jambalaya user that has requested this as well).
