Re: [PD] Connection with sensors - new devices?
by Koray Tahiroglu 15 May '07

15 May '07

I've been using arduino with PD heavily since the beginning of December, I am happy with the ready sensor connections as well as self made sensors. And Arduino is an open source microcontroller hardware, http://www.arduino.cc/ cheers, Koray.

new behaviour of [tabwrite~]
by Roman Haefeli 07 May '07

07 May '07

hello all i stumbled across a new (and very appreciated!) behaviour of [tabwrite~]. in previous versions of pd (< 0.40), when banged, [tabwrite~] started to record on the next block-boundary. when used together with a [metro]/[del]-[vline~] construction, this lead to a time shift, because [vline~] started the ramp somewhere between block-boundaries. now (at least in pd 0.40.2) i noticed, that this behaviour has changed and [tabwrite~] seems to use the same scheduler (or however this mechanism is called) like [vline~]. i couldn't find any documentation about that in the release notes. i wonder, if more objects have changed their behaviour. i am especially interested to know, if and which osclillator-objects also changed behaviour for their phase-inlets. this would make it possible to use [vline~] as a ramp generator while staying synched for each trigger. (e.g. interesting for creating bassdrums). i attached a patch to show the behaviour of [tabwrite~ ] roman

Gem DL Out Of Date! - FTGL continued
by timon 07 May '07

07 May '07

Hi, I posted some q's about GEM and FTGL issues some weeks back. Cause I dont compile myself, I rely on the extended package. I couldnt find anything on the PD official web site for downloading the latest GEM. Nice enough though, someone pointed me to the GEM download centre, http://gem.iem.at/download.html I downloaded the latest OSX binaries. Then I replaced the gem_darwin inside the latest HCS package (open package contents). To my surprise it worked, but to my disappointment, its a 3 year old release! GEM: Graphics Environment for Multimedia GEM: ver: 0.90 release GEM: compiled: May 25 2004 Is there anywhere I can find a recent version of GEM, for OSX G4, that is compiled WITH FTGL? Well, thanks.

I am getting the unsupported codec errors too with every codec I've tried. Is Fink a requrement for running pdp_qt? Maybe I should install Fink and try again tonight.

Re: [PD] dollar argument

Hallo, ronny vanden bempt hat gesagt: // ronny vanden bempt wrote: > First a small question, that maybe you know: how can I reply to a message on > the mailinglist, when I only receive digests? I don't know, this depends on your mailing software. You can always trim you quotes manually and CC the mail to pd-list(a)iem.at > But then for the dollarsign: I put the object [symbol $1] between the bang > and message box I use, but I still get an error. Now the error says: > -window: no such object. Yeah, that's a problem when you don't supply any argument to the abstraction. Empty arguments are assumed to be 0 and thus you need to use [f $1] instead of [symbol $1]. Or use [symbol $1-window] with different message box contents or use the catch-all-types approach: [list append $1] Another possibility is to use a send-object instead of semicolon-messages. Sender objects are nicer anyways IMO. See attached patch for all this in action. Ciao -- Frank Barknecht _ ______footils.org_ __goto10.org__

plugin~ "bad screen distance" (again)
by Cyrille.Damez＠laposte.net 05 May '07

05 May '07

Hi everybody, I'm struggling to get the plugin~ external working (to get LADSPA plugins in pd). Whenever I instanciate it in pd, I get an empty box with several inputs and outputs and an error message in the console about "bad screen distance". It also corrupts every single other node I create after that (all of them appear blank and output similar error messages). I quickly searched the archive and have seen that several users have had the same problem, and that for some, unsetting the LANG environment variable fixed the problem, but not for everybody. Unfortunately, I belong to the latter category. Has anybody found since another workaround ? Btw this happens using pd 0.40.2 under Linux with plugin~ from some pd-extended 0.40 release (I think 0.40.0 but I'm not 100% sure). Cheers

how to use a dollar argument
by ronny vanden bempt 03 May '07

03 May '07

Hey, In several patches I had the following problem: I make a patch that I'm going to use in another patch. To make it possible to use several of these subpatches in the main patch, I add a dollarsign where needed. But when I apply this to arrays, I cannot make it work. For example a block that applies a window. It's nothing more than a tabread block. But I have four files with a window in. So I call the array to read: $1-window. But when I want to read it with a message: $1-window read gaussBig.txt, it doesn't load. Probably this is because of the ambiguity between dollarsigns in a message and elsewhere, or maybe due to the dollarsign not being replaced in the name of an array. Anyone any idea how to deal with this? I refer also to the documentation of this block on our website: http://idafx.blogspot.com/2007/04/mapwindow-pdf-in-this-document-one-can.ht… Another small problem: can you leave a graph visible in a subpatch (thus with graph on parent selected) without seeing it in the mainpatch where this subpatch is used in? Because when i select graph on parent for the graph, the graph also appears in the parent patch at the same place, being next to the block from the subpatch. -- Ronny Vanden Bempt (0486)510841 www.ropefly.com www.hetdepot.be [home]riddersstraat 226, 3000 Leuven [dom]verbindingslaan 36, 3001 Heverlee
