76 /** Extended plug-in interface IEditController for a component: Vst::IXmlRepresentationController
77 \ingroup vstIPlug vst350
78 - [plug imp]
79 - [extends IEditController]
80 - [released: 3.5.0]
81 - [optional]
83 A representation based on XML is a way to export, structure, and group plug-ins parameters for a specific remote (hardware or software rack (such as quick controls)).
85 It allows to describe each parameter more precisely (what is the best matching to a knob, different title lengths matching limited remote display,...).\n See an \ref Example.
86 \n\n
87 - A representation is composed of pages (this means that to see all exported parameters, the user has to navigate through the pages).
88 - A page is composed of cells (for example 8 cells per page).
89 - A cell is composed of layers (for example a cell could have a knob, a display, and a button, which means 3 layers).
90 - A layer is associated to a plug-in parameter using the ParameterID as identifier:
91 - it could be a knob with a display for title and/or value, this display uses the same parameterId, but it could an another one.
92 - switch
93 - link which allows to jump directly to a subpage (another page)
94 - more... See Vst::LayerType
98 This representation is implemented as XML text following the Document Type Definition (DTD): http://dtd.steinberg.net/VST-Remote-1.1.dtd
