+
+This extension makes it possible to create user interfaces for LV2 plugins.
+
+UIs are implemented as an LV2UI_Descriptor loaded via lv2ui_descriptor() in a
+shared library, and are distributed in bundles just like plugins.
+
+UIs are associated with plugins in data:
+
+ :::turtle
+ @prefix ui: <http://lv2plug.in/ns/extensions/ui#> .
+
+ <http://my.plugin> ui:ui <http://my.pluginui> .
+ <http://my.pluginui> a ui:X11UI ;
+ lv2:binary <myui.so> .
+
+where `http://my.plugin` is the URI of the plugin, `http://my.pluginui` is the
+URI of the plugin UI and `myui.so` is the relative URI to the shared object
+file.
+
+While it is possible to have the plugin UI and the plugin in the same shared
+object file, it is a good idea to keep them separate so that hosts can avoid
+loading the UI code if they do not need it. A UI MUST specify its class in the
+RDF data (`ui:X11UI` in the above example). The class defines what type the UI
+is, for example what graphics toolkit it uses. Any type of UI class can be
+defined separately from this extension.
+
+It is possible to have multiple UIs for the same plugin, or to have the UI for
+a plugin in a different bundle from the actual plugin. This allows plugin UIs
+to be written independently.
+
+Note that the process that loads the shared object file containing the UI code
+and the process that loads the shared object file containing the actual plugin
+implementation are not necessarily the same process (and not even necessarily
+on the same machine). This means that plugin and UI code MUST NOT use
+singletons and global variables and expect them to refer to the same objects in
+the UI and the actual plugin. The function callback interface defined in this
+header is the only method of communication between UIs and plugin instances
+(extensions may define more, though this is discouraged unless absolutely
+necessary since the significant benefits of network transparency and
+serialisability are lost).
+
+UI functionality may be extended via features, much like plugins:
+
+ :::turtle
+ <http://my.pluginui> lv2:requiredFeature <http://my.feature> .
+ <http://my.pluginui> lv2:optionalFeature <http://my.feature> .
+
+The rules for a UI with a required or optional feature are identical to those
+of lv2:Plugin instances: if a UI declares a feature as required, the host is
+NOT allowed to load it unless it supports that feature; and if it does support
+a feature, it MUST pass an appropriate LV2_Feature struct to the UI's
+instantiate() method. This extension defines several standard features for
+common functionality.
+
+UIs written to this specification do not need to be thread-safe. All functions
+may only be called in the <q>UI thread</q>. There is only one UI thread (for
+toolkits, the one the UI main loop runs in). There is no requirement that a
+<q>UI</q> actually be a graphical widget.
+
+Note that UIs are completely separate from plugins. From the plugin's
+perspective, control from a UI is indistinguishable from any other control, as
+it all occurs via ports.

+
+The host must guarantee that the Gtk+ 2 library has been initialised and the

+not be used in the same process.

+ lv2:documentation """
+
+This feature was intended to support UIs that link against toolkit libraries

+
+If a UI has this feature, it indicates that it does not make sense to let the

+
+ui:scaleFactor
+ lv2:documentation """
+
+HiDPI (High Dots Per Inch) displays have a high resolution on a relatively
+small form factor. Many systems use a scale factor to compensate for this, so
+for example, a scale factor of 2 means things are drawn twice as large as
+normal.
+
+Hosts can pass this as an option to UIs to communicate this information, so
+that the UI can draw at an appropriate scale.

+
+The background color of the host's UI. The host can pass this as an option so

+
+Hosts should pass this as an option to UIs with an integer RGBA32 color value.
+If the value is a 32-bit integer, it is guaranteed to be in RGBA32 format, but
+the UI must check the value type and not assume this, to allow for other types
+of color in the future.

+
+ui:parent
+ lv2:documentation """
+
+This feature can be used to pass a parent that the UI should be a child of.
+The format of data pointer of this feature is determined by the UI type, and is
+generally the same type as the LV2UI_Widget that the UI would return. For
+example, for a ui:X11UI, the parent should be a `Window`. This is particularly
+useful for embedding, where the parent often must be known at construction time
+for embedding to work correctly.
+
+UIs should not _require_ this feature unless it is necessary for them to work
+at all, but hosts should provide it whenever possible.
+
+"""^^lv2:Markdown .
+
+ui:PortNotification
+ lv2:documentation """
+
+This describes which ports the host must send notifications to the UI about.
+The port must be specific either by index, using the ui:portIndex property, or
+symbol, using the lv2:symbol property. Since port indices are not guaranteed
+to be stable, using the symbol is recommended, and the inde MUST NOT be used
+except by UIs that are shipped in the same bundle as the corresponding plugin.

+Specifies a particular type that the UI should be notified of.
+
+This is useful for message-based ports where several types of data can be
+present, but only some are interesting to the UI. For example, if UI control

+that only the relevant events are forwarded to the UI, and not potentially high
+frequency MIDI data.

+
+This feature corresponds to the LV2UI_Resize struct, which should be passed

+This makes it possible to implement and distribute UIs separately from the

+"""^^lv2:Markdown .
+
+ui:touch
+ lv2:documentation """
+
+This is useful for automation, so the host can allow the user to take control
+of a port, even if that port would otherwise be automated (much like grabbing a
+physical motorised fader).
+
+It can also be used for MIDI learn or in any other situation where the host
+needs to do something with a particular control and it would be convenient for

+
+This allows a plugin UI to request a new parameter value using the host's UI,
