Yo all, My usual caveat applies: that I'm as nearly unconscious as I always am when I'm releasing public works :)
I had a flight today which gave me a chance to finish up [canvasselect] (by merging in some code from zexy's tabdump in my usual naive fashion to make it output index-lists rather than just post() the currently selected objects (thus, IO, you should probably double check my work :) )), and then put it to work starting to create some patching-assist functionality similar to max-toolbox.
I'm pretty excited for what can come out of this!
wow sounds great! i will try it out asap.
i kind of abandoned work on [canvasselect] after i realized that it did not seem to work as i liked (e.g. you cannot select something in a closed patch). that's why there were post()s inside rather than useful output...
IOhannes, do you know if it's possible to get and set the coordinates of arbitrary objects simply by index, much like [canvasposition] can do now but including externals etc. where you can't place a [canvasposition] object?
yes, i know this and it is on my todo list (it's not hard to do, i just did not find the time yet), i'm planning a separate class of objects like [canvas...] that operate on _other_ objects rather than self. http://lad.linuxaudio.org/events/2009_cdm/Saturday/18_Zmoelnig/index.html
Back soon with more...
really glad that you like it,
