Oops, looks like I left a couple [print] objects in the abstraction from when I was debugging it. You can delete [print STACK2] [print STACK3] [print STACK4]

Patrick,
Here's an abstraction I made to handle file browsing with a GUI interface. I actually based it on one of the PDMTL abstractions, having not known until this thread that [playlist] existed. Anyway, it should do all the same things playlist does, except for being resizeable.
You can select files by index or using the GUI. The right outlet gives you the number of loaded files, so you can use this to set the range of a [random] object and use it to select files by index.
Attached is the patch and its help file.

This is a VERY helpful patch, thanks. I wish we could have something like playlist~ for windows.

Hey All It's the perpetual newbie here again. I've been working on a generative gem patch (to run on a seperate machine when I work) and I want this to load >and re-load images from a selected folder. So far the only thing remotely like it I've found is [openpanel] which requires a user to choose. I really want an >object to load files from this directory randomly or sequentially without human interaction. I think I've seen something like this before, just no idea what it >is. Also, I could use something like it for audio Thanks Andrew
This patch will do what you want. It was originally created for audio loops, but will work for any directory or file extension.
