ugly font edges on non-black background
by Csaba Láng 08 Nov '19

08 Nov '19

Dear list, I would like to use [text3d] texts on yellow background but the edge of the texts are so ugly that I am concerning to use prerendered images on alpha channel. Not even mentioning the inside part of the letters/numbers which are black anyway. Is there a way to achieve beautiful texts which are on transparent background? Tried with alpha with all the numeric possibilities alpha offers (on 16 pd crashes) but without any success. Please advice! Best, Popesz

"Could'nt create"...
by David Schaffer 15 Aug '19

15 Aug '19

Hi everybody, I’ve been away from pd for about a year and, in the meantime, switched from mac to pc. I just reeinstalled the latest version of vanilla for Windows and I’m trying to reopen my old patches. There’s a few objects that won’t pop up and I can’t identify the libraries I’m missing. I thought you guys could help me figure that out. The objects are : Knob, splitfilename, Folder_list. Thank you very much for your help. D.S

IFTTT (“if this then that”) and connecting puredata to iot device like a wemo or other open source power outlet
by RT 02 Feb '19

02 Feb '19

Greetings I would like to connect and have Puredata control an iot device like wemo or other open source power outlet are there any examples or suggestions on where to start? I was thinking an example would be just to have Puredata turn off and on a power outlet (like a Wemo) using OSC or midi controls. The question I have is how do I connect Puredata to a iot power outlet to do this and which open source power outlet will allow this? -- -- |======================================================|

Advantages of using [timer] over [realtime]
by Mario Buoninfante 31 Jan '19

31 Jan '19

Hi, What would be the pros and cons in using [timer] instead of [realtime]. I know the latter asks the OS for time, while [timer] deals with logical time. If I got it right, logical time is tied to the sample rate (and block size), so it's basically the 'Pd time'. Another question would also be, which one is the most accurate? If this question is applicable. Cheers, Mario

Re: [PD] Japanese language problem
by Dan Wilcox 31 Jan '19

It's a bug. Pd should be able to handle unicode in this case. In the meantime, you can set the LANG environment variable when starting Pd to English as detailed in https://github.com/pure-data/pure-data/blob/master/po/README.txt#L42 <https://github.com/pure-data/pure-data/blob/master/po/README.txt#L42> > Hello, > > Pure Data throws the following error when I try to open up Media>Audio > Settings: > > (Tcl) UNHANDLED ERROR: extra characters after close-brace > while executing > "lappend audio_indevlist {}CN (Realtek High Definition} > global audio_outdevlist; set audio_outdevlist {} > lappend audio_outdevlist {Xs [J ..." > ("uplevel" body line 2) > invoked from within > "uplevel #0 $docmds" > > My OS is in Japanese and, according to this page ( > https://drugscore.blog.fc2.com/blog-entry-194.html <https://drugscore.blog.fc2.com/blog-entry-194.html>), I need to change the > language setting of my OS to English (presumably other European languages > would work, since I've used PD on a German-language system) to bypass this > system. > > Just wondering if there was another fix- it's not a big deal for me to > change the settings, but maybe for Japanese people interested in PD it > would be. -------- Dan Wilcox @danomatika <http://twitter.com/danomatika> danomatika.com <http://danomatika.com/> robotcowboy.com <http://robotcowboy.com/>

TCP weirdness ? ...
by oliver 30 Jan '19

30 Jan '19

hi, i recently stumbled upon some weird behaviour when i tried to connect 2 computers via netsend using the TCP protocol. this is on Windows 7 / 64bit, PD 0.49.0: so i hooked up 2 PCs with a network cable and fixed IP addresses. everything works fine. i can ping, i can send udp data to and from. but now comes the weird situation: when i try to connect with a TCP protocol to a valid IP address, but the port on the other machine is not yet opened (i.e. no [netreceive] has been created on the other computer), then my local PD freezes for about 20 (!) seconds before printing an error to the console. if i try to connect to a "localhost" non-existing port, there's still a small PD freeze but only for about 1 second. also irritating is the fact, that an invalid connection doesn't output a 0 on the left output, but instead does nothing. only the [disconnect( message outputs a 0. i would expect a non existing connection (whether it's because of an invalid IP-address or a wrong port number) to just immediately output an error on the console AND output a 0 on the left output of [netsend], right ? i am no expert in this field, so it might be that this behaviour is normal, though it doesn't seem right to me to stall a program for 20 seconds because of a worng network connection. i also experienced this behaviour with iemnet's [tcpsend] and [tcpclient]. i attached a patch with the described scenarios. thanks for any help or wisdom ! best oliver -- \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ /////////////// http://pendler.klingt.org ////////////// \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ http://oliver.klingt.org \\\\\\\\\\\\\\ ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
