Composers Desktop Project Forum

Hello there. I have been using CDP for some time now, but I still struggle with committing the order of arguments of different processes to memory, and having to reference somewhere else in order to refresh my memory is a personal issue of mine when it comes to workflow, especially with processes that take many arguments like the Texture modules.

When using other sound processing 'languages', like SuperCollider for example, there are contextual menus that appear once the IDE recognizes a string sequence as a possible Class, indicating the order and names of the arguments of this especific Class every time the class is recognized. Thus one never has to make the effort to memorize argument order, and the help is there every time in front you; very convenient. An example image follows below.

I was wondering: is this a possibility for usage with CDP somewhere? Is there some software that supports this type of menu? I currently use Notepad++ for writing the batch scripts to use with CDP, but it doesn't seem to be a possibility to be implemented there. Has there been some effort towards this in the past? Perhaps someone knows of some program where this has already been implemented, or can be implemented? Any information related to this would be welcome as this has been one of my big issue when approaching CDP. Thank you in advance.

The forum is live, but very very slow. There is a discord channel with a much faster response time here: https://discord.gg/QmQuJKB

Some people on the forum with in-depth knowledge of CDP, however, aren't on the discord. Those people will likely see your post and reply, eventually.

Sorry to say, I've got nothing on your actual question.
