thanks for your reply, unfortunately I don’t have a patch that triggers the error cue, (i’ve been trying to make it happen for the last 20 mins), it seems to just happen randomly every now and then, though i feel like it has something to do with closing gop windows.  I was just wondering if anyone was familiar with the error or able to interpret it and tell me what i'm doing wrong.

cheers

Betreff: [PD] GOP Errors

Hi,
 
When I use GOPs I occasionally get red errors like:
 
 
no such object
(Tcl) INVALID COMMAND NAME: invalid command name ".x10c074e20.c"
    while executing
"$tkcanvas itemconfig $tag -text [string range $text 0 end-1]"
    (procedure "pdtk_text_set" line 2)
    invoked from within
"pdtk_text_set .x10c074e20.c .x10c074e20.t10c34e5c0 {chord: 0.3208 0.3036 0.3725 0.3267 0.3642 0.3346 0.3815
0.3496 0.392 0.3679 0.376 0.3281 0.3206 0...."
    ("uplevel" body line 1)
    invoked from within
"uplevel #0 $docmds"(Tcl) INVALID COMMAND NAME: invalid command name ".x10c074e20.c"
    while executing
"$tkcanvas itemconfig $tag -text [string range $text 0 end-1]"
    (procedure "pdtk_text_set" line 2)
     
 
etc.
 
Seems from a quick search other people have experienced something similar, though it’s still not clear to me what the error means -  am I doing something wrong or is it a bug?
 
In the past it’s generally benign and pd keeps working but the last few times it’s happened (using 0.49-1) when I get these errors the gui freezes (but the sound keeps working), which is making me a little nervous to use GOPs for performances 
Not sure if it’s related but also on 0.49.1 I’ve noticed occasionally when i go to close a patch's main window I get a stream of errors:
 
.x10c430f60: no such object
.x10c430f60: no such object
.x10c430f60: no such object
.x10c430f60: no such object
.x10c430f60: no such object
 
etc
 
 
the visible GOPs disappear but the white canvas remains and PD freezes and I have to force quit. I can’t seem to recreate the error on cue, but it has happened quite a few times.
 
I’m using pd 0.49.1 on macOS sierra 10.12.6
