[image] As you can see, the imports work for nodes both in and outside the region. The type check in the output does not work. A similar issue can be seen here: [image]

We sorted this in a private chat that lead to some additional tests and issues. Thanks Marko.

hi Marco, did you try to import the type “properly” (using the word as i am lacking a proper term). There are several reasons for why you would want to do this. But let me first tell you how: Ctrl-J for explorer, Select “Imports” in the drop down. Browse to the referenced dll and drag the type on…

this sounds huge. very glad to hear there is more to api import than what was mentioned at NODE17, even when currently in infancy. [image] gregsn: Now after “properly importing”: Is the the error still popping up? unfortunately yes… [image] same result when placing the import in the root …

forgot to mention, that the imported type now shows up in the type edit field. just tested the other case in the opening post too, to rule out is has something to do with the delegate. so there in fact things look less grim now (the pad accepts it happily), but the situation is still bad: [image…

i would like to have a look at it

same sandbox patch as in the other thread [image] [VL] Patch Window freezes Use this to reproduce: zeromq.zip (99.9 KB)

looks like the important bits are missing in the zip. Can you recheck?

its all there, it seems. use a recent alpha, otherwise the vl plugin might not be valid.

hej marko, you somehow had splicers in an if region. maybe you renamed a for-loop with that splicers to an if-region? anyway, such a thing shouldn’t happen and can be considered as bug, i guess. [image]

ah, cool. was there a solution at the end? or some other insights/issues?

Some of the issues were not reproducible when loading the patch fresh. so it is not completely conclusive, why the original issue appeared. Yes, you heard it here first, if you are sure that some manual Typing should work, but import or casting errors appear anyway, don’t be afraid to restart vvvv…

[VL] Manual Type settings via Configure does not work for imported Types
