slow ParamUtilsSuite3()->PF_UpdateParamUI

Hi,

 

Cince cc 2023, I'm a bit confused with AE Param update when changing name.

 

When I use the ParamSuite like in  this exemple, the UI is slower than in cc2022 to be responsvive (in AE, not premiere)

 

   strcpy(param_copy[param_index].name, newNameAc);
        ERR(suites.ParamUtilsSuite3()->PF_UpdateParamUI(in_data->effect_ref,
                                                 param_index,
                                                &param_copy[param_index]));

 

the Alternative with AEGP works and is more responstive, but the modification is added to the undo list of the user.

Is there an alternative to be as fast as in CC2022 (and earlier) with the paramUtilSuite, or is there a solution.

with AEGP without adding the modification to the undo list ?

 

thanks.

tested on:

-AE 23.0,23.1,23.2.1 and 2023.3.

-windows 10/11 and macos 12

-to reproduce: drag a  slider (or other parameter) with a  name changed during PF_Cmd_UPDATE_PARAMS_UI cmd

Hi @crazylafo,

 

I have a bug written on this and a few reports but so far the projects we have in house are not reproducing the issue which makes it hard to diagnose. Would you be able to share a project and a screen recording of your steps with me? 

Please feel free to DM me if the project is confidential. 

 

Thanks, 
Dacia, Quality Engineer on After Effects.
