Hi all, I am searching for a Pd implementation of a doppler effect as realistic as possible. Any recommendations? Any patch/external already made and well tested? Cheers FJ

Binding gui externals to tcl/tk events
by Eric Lennartson 29 Sep '21

29 Sep '21

Hello all, I've been making some GUIs for myself and was looking at some of the else library to see how it was done. Specifically this pad.c file. <https://github.com/porres/pd-else/blob/master/Classes/Source/pad.c> I was wondering, how would one bind messages to just the GUI object in general, rather than to specific tags? I've tried changing this line from dial_vis by removing the tag, but that doesn't seem to work. I only have a basic knowledge of tcl/tk, so I'm pretty sure I'll be missing something pretty basic and/or obvious. Original: sys_vgui(".x%lx.c bind %lxBASE <ButtonRelease> {pdsend [concat %s _mouserelease \\;]}\n", cv, x, x->x_bindname->s_name); Removed Tag: sys_vgui(".x%lx.c bind %lx <ButtonRelease> {pdsend [concat %s _mouserelease \\;]}\n", cv, x, x->x_bindname->s_name); For context, I am trying to set up a system where I can assign a hotkey and use that to select/deselect the gui. Thanks, Eric

Howdy Miller, Let me know what areas I can help with. I saw a comment about having problems compiling d_soundfile_caf.c on windows? Also, there are a couple of things on macOS which should be updated, including checking if the latest Tcl/Tk Wish can be built natively for arm64. I last looked around February and it wouldn't build. > On Jul 13, 2021, at 8:57 PM, pd-dev-request(a)lists.iem.at wrote: > > Message: 1 > Date: Tue, 13 Jul 2021 10:22:17 -0700 > From: Miller Puckette <msp(a)ucsd.edu <mailto:msp@ucsd.edu>> > To: pd-dev(a)lists.iem.at <mailto:pd-dev@lists.iem.at> > Subject: [PD-dev] plans for next Pd release > Message-ID: <20210713172217.v4ch3b3dk7go7k5q(a)ucsd.edu <mailto:20210713172217.v4ch3b3dk7go7k5q@ucsd.edu>> > Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii > > (re-send - I had sent to pd-dev(a)iem.at <mailto:pd-dev@iem.at> but that now seems to be defunct...) -------- Dan Wilcox @danomatika <http://twitter.com/danomatika> danomatika.com <http://danomatika.com/> robotcowboy.com <http://robotcowboy.com/>

equivalent of Max attributes for optional keyword object args?
by Iain Duncan 24 Sep '21

24 Sep '21

Hi folks, I want to add an optional argument for object creation time to Scheme for Pd to allow setting the starting heap size, which can dramatically lower garbage collector times. In Scheme for Max 0.3 I added the @heap attr. I'm not sure what the normal way to do this kind of thing is in Pd. The catch is that this arg needs to be optional (beginners shouldn't have to worry about it) and needs to be set at object creation time because you can't change the starting heap size after creating the s7 interpreter. So I'm somewhat reluctant to just add a 3rd integer arg. Suggestions welcome! thanks! iain

New [command] external
by Roman Haefeli 23 Sep '21

23 Sep '21

Hey all, I am recently trying to dive into the C realm and revamped ggee's [shell] external. Because its API is different in many ways from the original, I decided to give it a new name. Before I publish this to a wider audience through Deken, I would like to make sure I do not destroy the world by releasing this. Any comments or suggestions are welcome. A first question I have is concerning the order of outlets. I kept the original order: STDOUT left, exit code right. However, since the exit code outlet fires always last, it probably would make sense the make it the left-most. Are there any similar precedent objects? https://github.com/pd-externals/command/ Thanks, Roman

treating $1 as an argument in A_GIMME
by Alexandre Torres Porres 18 Sep '21

18 Sep '21

Hi, when using A_GIMME I can test if the type is A_FLOAT or A_SYMBOL, but if I give it a "$1", for instance, it's treated as a float. Now, if I have 'A_DEFSYM' instead of 'A_GIMME', then '$1' is considered as a symbol. The problem is that I have to check if the first argument of cyclone/play~ is a float or not. If it's a float, then the creation fails and an error is given. If it's a symbol, then it's an array name. But if you have an abstraction ans using '$1' for the table name, the object shouldn't consider it as a float and fail the creation. This is the problem I need to solve. Thanks

...which reminds me I haven't had any time to look into macOS-specific stuff (bad) such as usual TK issues, M1 arm builds, etc, due to too much project work (good). Maybe this weekend / coming week. > On Sep 14, 2021, at 12:00 PM, pd-dev-request(a)lists.iem.at wrote: > > Message: 1 > Date: Mon, 13 Sep 2021 20:52:19 -0300 > From: Alexandre Torres Porres <porres(a)gmail.com <mailto:porres@gmail.com>> > To: Miller Puckette <msp(a)ucsd.edu <mailto:msp@ucsd.edu>> > Cc: pd-dev <pd-dev(a)lists.iem.at <mailto:pd-dev@lists.iem.at>> > Subject: Re: [PD-dev] plans for next Pd release > Message-ID: > <CAEAsFmivBpXw=kCOYO6Xjtjja8wZnKaiy3vG30cc=vHxXOFuYw(a)mail.gmail.com <mailto:CAEAsFmivBpXw=kCOYO6Xjtjja8wZnKaiy3vG30cc=vHxXOFuYw@mail.gmail.com>> > Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8" > > hi, sorry to bug you Miller, but summer is ending and I was wondering about > the next release if it's coming soon. > > cheers -------- Dan Wilcox @danomatika <http://twitter.com/danomatika> danomatika.com <http://danomatika.com/> robotcowboy.com <http://robotcowboy.com/>
