You may want to have a look at one of the example plugins [1] which shows how to
communicate between plugin and UI via
atom sequence ports with the plain LV2 API and then search for the analogous way in LVTK.
First question: In the ttl, can I just add an atomPort
with a type other
than sequence, like this:
[
a atom:AtomPort ,
lv2:InputPort ;
lv2:index 3;
lv2:symbol "text";
lv2:name "Text";
atom:bufferType atom:String ;
]
I do not know of any host supporting anything else than 'atom:bufferType
atom:Sequence'. The answer thus is NO, as no
host would support that.
As for your other questions, I can't help, as they are specific to LVTK and I
don't know anything about it.
P.s. there is a mailing list specifically for LV2 [2], you may well be more lucky to find
someone familiar with LVTK there.
