Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: None Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: gop multiplicity

Initial Comment:

1. Open patch.pd 2. Delete the subpatch. 3. Either a) create a new my_abs object or b) undo the previous delete 4. Repeat steps 2-3 n times.

Now when you open the subpatch, all actions occur n+1 times, e.g.: * creating a new object box makes a chain of n+1 object boxes * patch is saved n+1 times * paste creates n+1 new copies

If you don't save and try to close patch.pd, it repeats the message "discard changes to patch.pd" and sometimes crashes after two or three times.

The behavior persists until closing pd completely. So if you go through the steps above 3 times, close the patch, and reopen it and go through them 3 more times, you'll get 7 extra objects every time you create something from the "put" menu.

I only get this behavior when using gop, and with an object visible in the gop window. Same for abstractions. For each extra object created in the subpatch, I get a "consistency check failed: canvas_vis" error to the console.

Using pd-0.42-4 on windows xp sp3

Message: t_guiconnect registers a receive-symbol for any canvas but deleting a gop does not unregister the receive-symbol.

Message: Oh shit, it only disappears with the reporter's test patch, but I have experimented the bug also with -noautopatch

Message: I have tested with -noautopatch, which disables the belowmentioned feature, and the bug disappears. So it is definitely related to that feature, dunnow how.

Hope this helps m.

P.S. can anybody confirm?

Message: Hi, This bug seem to have APPEARED ON VERSION 0.42.0 At least, I tested it with the reporter's patch on 0.41.4 and it works fine, while on 0.42.0 the bug shows up 100% of the time.

That is the same version in which the (very annoying) feature was introduced that when you create a new object and another one is selected, a connection is automatically created. May the bug be related to the introduction of that feature?

Message: I confirm I can 100% reproduce it on Windows Vista with 0.42-4. Unfortunately I am only a user so I cannot help.

I have also encountered the same problem; my patch is too big and complex to attach it, but in my case I can reproduce the problem by just: A - loading the main patch B - closing it C - loading it again And I get the "mulyiplicity" in the main patch, not any subpatch. But not with your patch.

Message: I forgot to say I'm using winxp sp3 with pd vanille 0.42-5 to produce the behavior in the attached patch

Message: In step #3 above, please ignore "a) create a new my_abs object" and simply undo the previous deletion of the subpatch. Also, the multiplicity bug happens only within the subpatch window.
