I tried that, but it didnt actually worked, I just get actual sawtooths, and no real triangles.

here is what I got.

[phasor~]                               

[expr~ (min($v1, 1 - $v1) * 4) -1]

this is explained step by step with boxes and commentaries for the non matematicians (like me).

I tried to send the patch as text to this message, hope it works.
