cool
one other thing
inf is still output without any issue, an atom box will "print" and output "inf" and you can click on it and change it back to a number and keep scrolling numbers with it.
now, if an atom number box receives a 'nan', it freezes on that number... so it's confusing, you can't keep scrolling it, you have to know it was a 'nan' and click on it and change it back to a number. So it's only like it is not displaying 'nan', but still behaves so...
By the way, the number atom box still outputs "nan" and you can check it with a [print] object.
So yeah, it looks like a bug :)
but a bug in the atom number box...
*And now about the "number2" GUI:*
it also does not print "nan" as it used to... but differently than the atom box, it *doesn't* output "nan", it outputs again the last number... so you can keep scrolling with it...
Now, about number2 and "inf".
It does not print "inf", it does print '1e+37'... and it doesn't output anything, if you try and print something from its output, nothing comes by...
this is an old behaviour and i consider it a bug! It should behave in the same way as the atom number box

Howdy, the newer versions of Pd filter out "Nan" in number/atom boxes, right? Pd-Extended 0.42 and Pd-L2ork still output 'nan' in atom boxes, btw...
Anyway, why is that? If 'nan' were not allowed in general in Pd, that'd make sense, but it's only in atom/number boxes, 'nan'is still output and can be printed...
one thing i dont like about this is that the display will output the last value instead of an error or a 'nan' output, even though 'nan' is still output.
check patch attached
