Installed scripts not showing up in the Tools menu

General Discussion

Hi All,

I’m relatively new to Renoise so I may be missing something obvious. I installed some scripts from the Renoise Tools website and also a few from Martblek’s Gumroad site. I dragged and dropped them in Renoise and they installed fine. I can see them in the Tool Browser and they’re enabled. I just can’t figure out how to launch them. I thought they would show in the Tools menu list. I’m using Linux, if that matters. Any ideas?

Thanks.

Some scripts are called by tools menu but others can have menu entries elsewhere in renoise or custom shortcuts. This should be explained on the pages you downloaded the tools from. If you post links to the specific tools I may be able to give you a point in right direction.

Hello,
My tools are focused on samples so they are all just in the sample menu or under a keyboard shortcut.
The others are in their own categories.
I’m not very good at writing manuals.

Ledger, I managed to locate them. Well, I created a shortcut for Padsynth. I’m still not sure where it resides.

Martblek, thanks for the heads up. All good now.

Thanks for the help! It’s greatly appreciated.

Summary 
renoise.tool():add_menu_entry {
    name = "Instrument Box:PadSynth Instrument...",
    invoke = function()
        PadSynth(renoise.song().selected_instrument)
    end
}

renoise.tool():add_keybinding {
    name = "Global:Tools:PadSynth Instrument...",
    invoke = function()
        PadSynth(renoise.song().selected_instrument)
    end
}

For Padsynth:

  1. Seems to be a right-click menu in the instrument box - top right of renoise interface:

PadSynth Instrument…

  1. Also the same name as menu found where you define all your renoise shortcuts in prefs:

padsynth
