This element enables the designer to create his own surfaces based on the variations of a given curve: the surface represents the evolution of the curve over time.
See common elements attributes.

Duration for the swept curve. |
The x coordinate bounds will be [0;duration_ms] |

|
refresh_time_ms |
Any positive integer value |
50 |
interval between two sampled values. |
You should increase this value if you are concerned with display performance issues. |

The following example creates a surface sampling the output_curve1 curve of the plug-in every 100 ms for 10 seconds:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?> <SKIN language_version="1.2.2"> <!--Create a surface with output curve 1 of the plug-in to display it later in a surface graph--> <CURVE_FROM_PARAM_OVER_TIME id="mySurface1" curve_id="dsp.output_curve1" name="Output1 Surface" duration_ms="10000" refresh_time_ms="100"/> </SKIN>
