Thanks for the info on your patches, I'll check them out when I get a chance.
In one of your tutorials, you asked about the "sort" message. Have a look at 07.sequencer.pd. If you open the synthesis subpatch, you'll see that pd-data is sent a sort message before sequencing. This sorts the data so that the left-to-right order of the graphical objects on the screen reflects the order in which they will be traversed. In this case it's a way of ensuring that the sounds "match" the visuals.
As far as undocumented features, I don't know, but I just noticed there's a typo in the release notes: "A "sendwindow" message forwards any message to the window contining the scalar currently pointed to."
It's actually send-window (with a hyphen). [send-window vis 1( | [pointer]

are there any other still undocumented features? I
already noticed that
struct outputs more than select/deselect -
specially in pd-van.
I don't think, Pd-extended has different DS
features than Pd vanilla.
I'm on extended+windows, and the latest available build is from july 08 - there the structs don't output the "click" values. but that might be back in order when HC replaces the windows build disk. but testing them with pd-van revealed a couple missing details.
(x:y) is documented in 4.data.structures/09.scaling.pd
yes, that was the tutorial I was speaking about and didn't clearly say.
I've made these "tutorials" to resume the possibilities of working with data-s. they're not too pedagogic, but I think it's understandable for non-beginners. is anything missing there?
And a question: arrays don't output the "change" separator?_______________________________________________ Pd-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management -> http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list
