Hello list,
Long time, no e-mail.
It seems there's a limit in [plot] to only plot the first 1000 elements of a struct's array (at least for me on Ubuntu 18.04, pd 0.51)? I was wondering if there was a practical and/or performance-related reason to that limit (and also if said limit could be raised).
I might have a weird use case, but I've been building a video player with 16-parameter biometric data associated with each frame so I've been using arrays in [struct]s to store the data and [plot] to plot it all out with a cursor drawn with [drawpolygon] to track the position in the data with the current video position. I've been working with up to 10-12ish minute long videos so that's arrays of about length 11000 with 16 elements per entry each and so I've been breaking the data up into 1000-element to get around that 1000 element limitation.
On my 5-ish year old laptop and loading up the data from a text file and plotting everything and togglinng and untoggling plotting certain parameters, the performance isn't so bad, definitely usable (just end up with a horizontally loooong canvas that you have to navigate with a fair bit of scrolling).
