This page describes how to create new linked widgets for parameters.

Learn more about widget creation here.

1. Create a Board within the project tree

2. Create a new widget within the board and open the editor

3. Create the correct Data Source

A parameter-linked widget must use the correct data source (Parameter Target) to function properly.

4. Link the parameter target to a parameter

Linking the parameter while building the widget makes it easier to build and verify.

5. Add some interface elements to interact with the value of the parameter

6. Link the interface with the parameter target

7. Export the widget

8. Correct file location

Exported widgets need to follow a specific folder path.

First, you will find your exported widget in your Documents folder under:

C:\Users\{USERNAME}\Documents\Grid Studio\Widgets

The widgets need to be located within the following padder:

C:\Users\{USERNAME}\Documents\Grid Studio\Widgets\{WIDGETPACK}\LinkedWidgets\{PARAMETERTYPE}

C:\Users\{USERNAME}Documents\Grid Studio\Widgets\Grid Original\LinkedWidgets\Bool

All widgets within this folder will be available as soon the parameter is dragged onto a board.
