Miscelaneous questions
by Larry Troxler 28 Feb '98

28 Feb '98

- The scope~ object is still under construction, I presume? I ask this because it appears there is no way to specify the geometry. - There is a "get" object but no corresponding "put" object for arrays - should I code one, or is this array system going to change anyway? - I load a sound-file into an array (I modified my copy of the "read" message to do this, which also resizes the array to the size of the sound-file). Now, how can I obtain the size of the array from within a patch (so I can play it using tabread4~). Perhaps the better question is whether array objects are really intended to be used for sound-files? I realize that this software is still being constructed, so please don't take any of the above as a criticism! Larry -- Larry Troxler -- lt(a)westnet.com -- Patterson, NY USA --

It looks working with no problem, and 3d text is very cool :-) By the way, distance parameter's behavior is something strange. Is center value is zero ? And I have one more question. Is this correct behavior ? 1) by default the value is zero 2) once changed to other value 3) then set it zero again 4) the result is not same as first > pix_video for NT is in a pre-alpha state...if anyone can get > anything to appear, please let me know.

Changing "q" can still cause clicks.

I fixed the rld problem with GEM 0.73 for SGI. Just re-download the version from my page. Thanks to Bill Kleinsasser for stumbling onto it (that will teach me to not check things throughly...)

Gem-0.72 for Linux
by Guenter Geiger 24 Feb '98

24 Feb '98

Before gem-0.73 comes out, I'd like to announce the availability of gem-0.72 for Linux. It's at ftp://iem.mhsg.ac.at/pd/gem-linux.0.72.tar.gz and is in source format only. I hope 0.73 will follow soon. Guenter ( I don't have the time for extensive testing at the moment, so this version could be a little bit unstable .. just let me know if you have problems )

gem 0.73
by Mark Danks 23 Feb '98

GEM 0.73 is out for WinNT. It will probably be a couple of days before the SGI version is ready. The new features: JPEG and SGI image file formats are supported. 3d text is supported. Use your favorite True Type font. pix_video for NT is in a pre-alpha state...if anyone can get anything to appear, please let me know. I'm making sure that video for windows actually works as advertised. Misc. bugs fixed.

Pd Hacking
by Guenter Geiger 23 Feb '98

23 Feb '98

If somebody wants to improve pd .. here are some suggestions * Moving around objects in the gui is slow. This is due to the communication overhead which is done for this step. I just took a short look into this part of pd and figured out that probably we should not update the objects positions that much while moving (just be sure that at the end of moving the objects are redrawn correctly). * The editor for text should be improved. At least it should be possible to use the cursor within text (e.g. comments) and insert text. I'm writing this not having tested 0.21 yet ( But I suppose these problems are still there) Comments ?
