PF_Cmd_UPDATE_PARAMS_UI handling

Question

Dear AE fellows,I have a small question.I just realized that my plugin code (which is 90 percent ready) doesn't have the handling of  PF_Cmd_UPDATE_PARAMS_UI message in my MainEffect function.Still my native AE UI parameters are seemingly handled alright and respond to changes. Is PF_Cmd_UPDATE_PARAMS_UI  necessary or is it enough to simply have the handling of PF_Cmd_USER_CHANGED_PARAM? Yaroslav.

PF_Cmd_USER_CHANGED_PARAM is called only on user interactions. PF_Cmd_UPDATE_PARAMS_UI is called at other times such as when a new instance of an effect is created or when an instance is loaded with a project.

if PF_Cmd_UPDATE_PARAMS_UI invocation times are not relevant to you, then there's no need to imeplement it.
