SHAPE LOADER / SHAPE SAVER (GUI)
--------------------------------

Load and save respectively Shapes in standard BLOB format to/from a .shp file (editable text file).

The Interpolation Type value specified to the Interpolation Choice In (saver) will be saved to the .shp file. In case an invalid number is supplied, the value saved will default to Linear.

The Interpolation Type stored in the .shp file will be output to the Interpolation Choice Out pin (loader).



NOTE:

A file name without path will be located inside the plugin folder (plugin only).
However, you can specify the full path of the file on your hard disc; if such file can't be located at the original path (eg. by a plugin user), it will be located in the plugin folder. This makes embedding files easy, in conjunction with "Copy additional files" feature in the Export dialog.


NOTE ABOUT LOAD/SAVE TRIGGERING:

For both the Load and the Saver, Auto Triggering on setting the filename pin(s) can be enabled for convenience (pins not exposed). 
Unfortunately SynthEdit does not allow a pin to be set twice with a same value. The obvious drawback is that, when a File Requester is connected to the FileName pins alone, it can't be used to overwrite a same file, or to reload a same file, because the corresponding module won't get any pin update if the file name string is not changed.
A manual Trigger pin is thus still provided, which is always operational no matter which the Auto Trigger setting. It can be used for manual triggering or, as for its intended usage, connected to the User OK pin of an ED File Requester module. Or it can also be used to trigger a manual "Reload" or "Overwrite" operation not requiring a re-opening of the file requester.

When using manual trigger, the content of the non-empty File Name pin will be used. In case both are non-empty, the content of the last File Name pin set will be used.
