Sending a Keystroke from PD?
by Ryan Supak 25 Sep '05

25 Sep '05

Hi, I'm trying to have PD "programatically" send a keystroke, just as if a key on the keyboard was pressed. I imagine this can easily be done with pyExt, but is there a simpler way? Thanks for any thoughts! rs

Gem pix_snap2tex bug?
by vade 25 Sep '05

25 Sep '05

Hello Ive been having an odd issue that I cant seem to figure out. Im using pix_snap2 to capture the complete rendered frame of my openGL scene. My objects are drawn in the center, and never go out of the openGL clipping volume, or the 2D clipping plane of the window. However, pix_snap2tex seems to be picking up a one or two pixel border around the captured frame. Im running OS X 10.4.2, powerbook, 128Mb VRam, GEM 0.90, Hans's PD 0.38-4-RC1 Here is a screenshot to illustrate http://homepage.mac.com/doktorp/ars/gem1.png Now, I was able to minimize these lines to only the bottom left by changing the capture resolution to snap2pix to 798x598 (chopping off two pixels from my gemwin resolution), but I cannot completely get rid of those lines.. anyone know? Idly curious.. btw, I tried mailing this to the list with an attachment, and it never went through... whats up with that ? v a d e // http://homepage.mac.com/doktorp/ doktorp(a)mac.com

[maxlib]'s future
by Roman Haefeli 24 Sep '05

24 Sep '05

hi olaf, hi all i noticed that maxlib is not maintained anymore and there is no place where you can download it at the moment. since using maxlib is essential for netpd, this is a big problem for me/us/netpd-community. i'd like to ask you politely, if it is ok for you, when i post the sources and the binaries on my site http://www.netpd.org . otherwise i would have to rebuild the whole netpd-package from scratch. i won't be able to continue maintaining maxlib, since i'm not able to program in c, but it would be nice, if there would be a place to download maxlib and it won't disappear completely. thanks for your answer in advance cheers roman ___________________________________________________________ Was denken Sie über E-Mail?

[OT][NYC] Free Hardware Share?
by vze26m98 23 Sep '05

23 Sep '05

Hey all- Thought I'd throw this out to PD'ers in the NYC area, or anyone really: I've been having great luck (for my purposes) finding computers and parts on the streets of New York, and have even been doing some informal trading with some of the other street scavengers. I got a mailing from the Department of Sanitation advertising their recycling day at Union Square, October 16th, I think. Has anyone been to one of these as a source of hardware or talked to the Dept. about getting a crack at their stuff for group projects? Or whatever? How about a PD demo table? curious, vatic <vze26m98(a)optonline.net>

regards
by michael gardner 23 Sep '05

23 Sep '05

hello. i just subscribed to this list and hope it is quite active. i recently discovered Pd through my interest in Max/MSP. unfortunately i dont have the funds neccessary to really get involved with it at the moment, and it looks like Pd would be a good alternative. is Pd a good application for live audio performance? since i know absolutely NOTHING about Pd, and dont know anyone that does, where can i find some useful information in regards to getting started and getting a feel for it? i absorb complicated technical information quite well, but i dont have a background in anything similar. any help at all is greatly greatly appreciated.

OSCprepend to message; input to sendOSC?
by Urs Liska 22 Sep '05

22 Sep '05

Hi, I am trying to get an OSC connection working but have problems with the input [sendOSC] is expecting. OSC is running, I have connected [sendOSC] and [dumpOSC] in two patches successfully and also have sent messages that I write into message boxes. But in the actual patch I cant use message boxes like [send /OSC/namespace/etc $1( or similar but get messages from [OSCroute] modules or Frank Barknecht's [OSCprepend] abstraction that look like [/OSC/namespace/etc 12.5( If I put a [send $1( before the [sendOSC], only the 12.5 is sent. If I connect it directly I get the error "no method for '/OSC...'". So how can I process the output of a [OSCroute] to be sent by [sendOSC]? It seems like something stupid but I can't find the solution. Thanks for any hints Urs -- Urs Liska GlÃŒmerstr. 5 D-79102 Freiburg www.graft-music.com www.suonomobile.de [Pd 0.39.0, WinXP]

Re: [PD] vasp path for use with pd-0.38.4-extended-RC2

Hi Paris, > > Thanks - yes, I included vasp in the libraries to load on startup but > interesting about vasp-help.pd > That file doesn't appear to be in this .app. > There are a bunch of files of the type > vasp-something.pd > located in > /doc/5.reference > as well as a directory called vasp located: > /doc/vasp > but no vasp-help file. > > Maybe it didn't make it into this .app that Hans-Christoph built? > well, the VASP-HELP.pd isn't the most important one... maybe it's in the help folder structure somewhere. More important are the several abstractions like vasp.re etc... these should come with the .app, otherwise vasp is pretty incomplete. best, Thomas

the case of the missing pool
by David NG McCallum 22 Sep '05

22 Sep '05

All and T, I have no idea why pool keeps refusing to work for me. I've freshly compiled Pd .39-1test1, flext .5, and pool .2.1 Trying to put a pool on a canvas gives me the regular: pool 0.2.1 - hierarchical storage object, (C)2002-2005 Thomas Grill But then the object disappears, nothing happens. pd -verbose doesn't give any clues, either. Ideas? David -- __ _ _ _ _ __ ___ _ _ __ _ ___ ____ _ __ __ __ _ __ __ To talk about it is to miss the point http://sintheta.org
