Hi list,
I would like to try to change pd-vanilla patch rendering in order to obtain something like pd-extended rendering.
I've cloned the latest pd-vanilla GIT repo and I've started to look at the src in order to figure out how to do that. After some search, it seems that all what I need is in the tcl stuff. I've googled it and it seems that I'm right, or am I wrong?? (perhaps I've should start from here :D ).
First of all, I've tested the build procedure. It was ok. I've tested pd-vanilla *without installing it*: cd src ./pd
I've got an error: " ... pd-gui.tcl": no such file or directory. I've resolved: cd src ln -s ../tcl
Now, pd works.
Then, I've tried to modify some simple elements in order to check if I can see the effect. I've added some stuff in the "init_for_platform" {}
Here is the stuff that I've added:
# color scheme
set ::canvas_fill "#303030"
set ::text_color "#ff0000"
set ::select_color "#ff7200"
set ::dash_outline "#008800"
set ::dash_fill "#000055"
set ::box_outline "#888888"
set ::graph_outline "#888888"
set ::atom_box_fill "#555555"
set ::msg_box_fill "#555555"
set ::obj_box_fill "#550000"
set ::signal_cord_highlight "#fff600"
#set ::signal_cord "#00868a"
#set ::signal_nlet $signal_cord
set ::msg_cord_highlight "#fff600"
set ::msg_cord "#ff3e8a"
set ::msg_nlet "#ff3e8a"
set :mixed_nlet "#88aaff"
But when I stat pd, it seems that this modification has no effect.
What I've missed?
Thank you
Alessio
