gui devel idea: "kiosk mode"
by João Pais 08 May '10

08 May '10

Hi, just had a thought for a gui development: a runtime mode, feasible for demos or "finished" applications where the user only gets presented with the finished program, and no menus. In opera it's called kiosk mode (http://www.opera.com/support/mastering/kiosk/): all the menus are hidden, and the user should only interact with the program. It doesn't have to go as far as opera's mode (and disable key shortcuts), but if it's not complicated, a "presentation mode" could be nice for patch showcase, finished performance patches or tools, ... As far as I imagine, some simple options might be enough: - hide menus - hide window lane - hide borders - fullscreen mode Best, JoÃ£o -- Friedenstr. 58 10249 Berlin (Deutschland) Tel +49 30 42020091 | Mob +49 162 6843570 Studio +49 30 69509190 jmmmpais(a)googlemail.com | skype: jmmmpjmmmp

[helplink]
by Hans-Christoph Steiner 08 May '10

08 May '10

I just made a simplified version of [pddplink] called [helplink] for making clickable links to help patches. Its in externals/pddp and should be in tomorrow's Pd-extended builds. Basically, you just put the classname as an argument, and you'll get a clickable link, i.e. [helplink select] [helplink cyclone/counter] [helplink Gem/scale] .hc ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- http://at.or.at/hans/

ambisonic: cartesian to polar coordinate conversion?
by João Pais 07 May '10

07 May '10

Hi, I was looking around G Holzmann's ambisonic patches, and wanted to try the XY example out. But my problem is that in my patch I already have everything setup with x-y coordinates. Is there any way of converting from cartesian to polar coordinates? Would a cartopol be enough, or do you suggest something more complex?

Fwd: Ubuntu Realtime setup

I've read that this was considered a security breach and that newer versions of Ubuntu, Fedora, etc. had this "fixed". Udev rules. I created a wiki page: http://puredata.info/docs/tutorials/HowToReadHIDDevicesInLinuxWithoutBeingR… Please test the rules as I only have my rules files and no Linux in front of me to test at the moment. I think the wiki page is underused. I must admit, my initial reaction to the question was to post the same info in brief in this email response. More and more, I realize just responding with answers on this list dosen't help as much as putting the same info on the wiki.

That'd be nice to have another paragraph about it, as i think one doesn't get the same performances with realtime permissions in a rt vs. non-rt kernel. > Well, it is a wiki ... go ahead and add the info. I don't the rt kernel as, so far, it hasn't been needed.

The question for me here is, if Miller, Hans, and other core people are interested in leaving Tcl/Tk behind, and if yes, how soon? Andras

[PD-announce] Megapolis DIY Audio Festival in Baltimore
by patrick mcnameeking 07 May '10

07 May '10

Hey there announce list! The Megapolis Audio Art Festival is going to be held in Baltimore, MD this year from the evening of May 14 to Sunday May 16. I'm going to be doing a workshop/jam session in PD and I'm hoping that it will be a lot of fun. My guess is that anyone who is on the PD list probably won't learn a whole lot from the workshop but we are going to create some simple synthesizers and then plug into a mixer and have a jam session that everyone can enjoy. The festival itself has an awesome lineup of performances, workshops, lectures, and installations. I'm sure that there is something for everyone to enjoy! Hope to see some of you there! Pat here's the festival's url: www.megapolisfestival.org _______________________________________________ Pd-announce mailing list Pd-announce(a)iem.at http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-announce
