IOhannes,
Maybe the gem help files need to be updated. This is from the help/gemhead.pd help patch (second paragraph):
"gemhead takes an argument to determine when it receives the render command. The default value is 50. The lower the value is, the sooner the gemhead will receive the rendering command (a value of 1 is the lowest possible value.) This values becomes important when you are doing alpha blending and for certain objects (such as light). "
you misunderstood something: you cannot give arguments to [separator] to define a execution order of sub-gemchains.
however: [gemhead]s have this very argument. and you can even change it at run-time with a [set $1( message (replace $1 with the wanted value). so the documentation is all right.
