Thanks Joao, will try with that one too.

Still would like to understand what's behind this issue.

I use ggee/image on my clicktracker (http://code.google.com/p/clicktracker/), and on my patch to control ardour from Pd (in my extra folder from version 0.43). So far I've seen it works in Win, Ubuntu and OsX.

I see, just yesterday I tried on a Mac OSX 10.7 with the moonlib/image.

The gif to be loaded were in user/Applications/MySoftware/images/.
I also [declare -path images] in my patch.

[image] couldn't open them.
I opened them again, but only one gif was loaded correctly.
No error messages.

The same patch located in the same folder on a Mac OSX 10.6 loaded images
correctly.

I can't understand this behaviour, hints?

I recently did some work on the moonlib/image object.  It works well for
me on Mac OS X and Ubuntu, but I haven't tested it a lot.  Its included in
Pd-extended 0.43.  I don't know about 0.42.

Hi all,

it drives me nuts and it's not even an interesting issue.

I'm using the [image] obj from moonlib.
Works good on Linux, but I'm teaching workshop in which students may be
using OSX.

On some OSX machines it loads properly the images, on others it loads one
image but not the others (they are all gif imgs in the same folder), or it
only properly loads an image after manually send an [open something(
message. I think it might be related to folders permission, but the issue
is different on each single osx machine and I don't have a mac to debug.

I tried also [iem_image] but I had the same kind of instability on OSX.
I usually create the [image], open a file and save. Works on Linux.
Adding a [loadbang] does not help.

Is there some tricks or something I'm missing so to use it properly?
or which is the most reliable and cross-compatible way to display an image
in Pd?

thx,
