And now: ''Deploy'' - a very nice feature. If there is not the right IP-address (includeing the port!) of your Zynthian in the text field: edit this field! After deploying you cannot see the new icons. You first have to reload MOD-UI/mod-host.

After deploying you cannot see the new icons. You first have to reload MOD-UI/mod-host: go to the shell and enter '''systemctl restart mod-host && systemctl restart mod-ui'''.

Ahhh - one thing: Store the generated modgui on antoher computer - or better: distribute it! How to do that? First you have to copy the files from your Zynthian to your main computer. I am doing this with

  scp -r root@<YOUT-ZYNTHIAN-IP>/zynthian/zynthian-plugins/lv2/<LV2-PLUGIN-NAME>.modgui .
 +
 
 +
Please '''ZIP''' or '''TAR''' this folder and send it to ''support@zynthian.org''.

 +
 +
  /zynthian/zynthian-sw/mod-sdk/make_screenshot.py /zynthian/zynthian-plugins/lv2/<YOUR-PLUGIN-FOLDER>

You can also create your own images and stylesheets by hand. Take a look on some generated modguis of other plugins and try... sorry - I have not more information about his - but perhaps _you_ want to write how to do this?
