hmmm, it's kind of a bummer not running such things natively in a Pd patch window (aka Tk canvas), for instance, I couldn't do a cyclone/scope~ propely just like Max's... it'd need to be in the patch window...

But at least, as far as building awesome interfaces goes, I assume such projects like these (Ofelia/Pof) can offer a window just for "awesome", "beautiful", fully functional interface windows for controlling the patch and visualising data, right? I mean, transcending all the limitations of tcl/tk, with alpha channels and what not...

That's funny, I've just recently discovered your PoF project, which you've mentioned below: https://github.com/Ant1r/ofxPof

I haven't really tried it, just skimmed through the code, but the multi-threaded rendering looks very promising and should make it much more suitable for building GUIs while simultanously running audio!

You'd have to open another window for that.

So, Tcl/Tk can't offer us an anpha channel for things like iemguis.

But what if I want to write an external that does that? For cyclone, for instance, there could be an alpha channel for opacity/transparency, as the original ones have in Max.

I assume I'd have to use some other language as an alternative and so I'd like to ask for hints on which and also if it is even possible (I'm rather clueless, sorry). 

I see Purr Data, which uses NW.js, offers an alpha channel, could I supposedly code an external that uses such a language and load it in Pd Vanilla? How?

Sorry if I'm asking too basic and vague questions...

cheers
