Hey all,
I was thinking about mirroring gem-chains across machines over the network to sync them. Rather than having to create some system over OSC or xlmrpc or similar that contains all the different parameters for a particular chain it would be really handy to be able to have gem create a description string of a gem-chain.
So there is an object in the gem-chain that converts all the objects in the gem-chain above it into a PD list. something like "rotate 90 0 0, translate -4 0 0, color 1 0.5 0 1, alpha" that describes the objects in the chain as a list. This list could then be easily transported over th
seems like you are talking about the Graphical Environment for Max (Gem pre 1997 or something) ;-)
i am not really sure how we should handle this efficiently in both terms of performance AND coding-time; it should be fairly easy to build a list of objects involved into a render-chain; but it gets tough when it comes to the data. what about pixes ?
now it's me who ist jsut thinking aloud.
Did anyone miss my proposal for the "clear" function for gemwin? Should I put it in the feature requests on source-forge?
