confirmed, synth is failling to update description. when changing boxes.

code not working:

def updateViewer(self):
	
        selectedType = SynthLabConstants.CHOOSE_TYPE[self.objectType][self.choosenType]
	
        infoType = SynthLabConstants.SYNTHPARA[selectedType][4]	
        infoPara = SynthLabConstants.SYNTHPARA[selectedType][4+self.curSlider]	
        self.infoText = infoType + '\n\n' + SynthLabConstants.SYNTHPARA[selectedType][self.curSlider-1] + ': ' + infoPara	
        self.textBuf.set_text(self.infoText)

When you select combobox, the descritor info gets updated but not when clicked.

Most of the time that is true. I've also seen situations where even deselecting/reselecting the module in the combobox didn't help. (Strange enough this happened regularly when the previously selected module had been an LFO, I'm pretty sure that this was coincidence, but who knows). I was able reproduce this behavior every time I selected/deselected modules for a little while.

Yep we need to get deeper, i've also seen erratic behaviors. at least i know the part of the code that should be complemented.
