Many thanks!

The first thing you wanna do is to lock the script-tab by password. Just open your tab and hit the “Lock with Password” button.
However this is not super save, so you can extra secure your script-tab by putting a slider on top of the “edit” button while disabling the sliders automation.
For this simply create a new slider and position it on the very left and on the very bottom. Disable the automation and add a transparent png to your slider to make it invisible. Here is an example code:

on init
	declare ui_slider $scriptlocker (0,1)
	$scriptlocker -> text := ""
	$scriptlocker -> picture := "btn_scriptlocker"
	$scriptlocker -> width  := 64
	$scriptlocker -> pos_x  := 0
	$scriptlocker -> allow_automation := 0
	$scriptlocker -> help := "you got no access"


	if(in_range($YOUR_UI_HEIGHT_IN_PX, 54, 540))
		$scriptlocker -> pos_y := $YOUR_UI_HEIGHT_IN_PX-20
		else
			$scriptlocker -> pos_y := 34
	end if
end on

In this way, however, you also lock yourself out. That’s why you should store your whole script into “Resources/scripts folder as a simple txt file.

In your script-tab hit “Apply from…” and chose “resources folder -> [your-script.txt]”

Create the resources container then. Now your-script.txt gets stored inside the resoruces.nkr file.

Of course you can edit your-script.txt inside the Resources/scripts folder at any time and create the resource container again.

Alternatively you can also load the empty factory preset to clear your script tab an make it accessible again.
