hi,
don't know about [plugin~], but I know some objects sends text as "anything" instead of "symbol" (like [mergefilename] I believe...
Try to just insert a [symbol] object between [route label] and [append $1(...
Hope I'm right
cheers

hello all,

this should be a basic question for probably the majority of you, but i'm a n00b so here goes.

i'm working with the [plugin~] object and want to use a [popup] object to make it more manageable. so my idea was pretty elementary

[listplugins( ---- [plugin~]-------[route label]-----[append $1(------[popup]

my error is "$1: argument number out of range" so i'm pretty sure it is expecting a float and getting a symbol. i'm sure this is a pretty basic p:d concept but i can't grasp how to send a message with a variable symbol coming in, if that makes sense. i need to be sending [append PhaserII( or something similar. when i [print] the [route label] i get the PhaserII, but it's not passing that along in the append message.

i hope you can help, if my explanation was not too confusing =)

thanks
tyler
