Default behavior of "stream switch" box?

Post by toncho11 »

Hi,

Here at Gipsa lab we noticed that the "stream switch" does not output any signal until it receives one of the stimulations in its configuration. That means that the signal in the beginning is completely lost, because it is not being redirected.

A good idea (a fix) is to add a new UI property dropdown if you wish: "Default initial channel: 1/2".

Cheers,
Anton

Hi Anton,

The default behaviour is indeed not to send anything until one output has been activated by a stimulation.
Adding a setting for a default output is possible. I would prefer activating by default the first output, it's simpler and does not require an update of the boxes in existing scenarios.

We will think about this after the 0.14.0 release (which come very soon, unexpected compatibility bugs with new OS versions delayed it a bit).
