Hi,

I've seen in many pd guides that it is possible to use the keyboard to enter values into number and symbol atoms. I've tried clicking, double-clicking, and I can't seem to enter values with my keyboard.

try again:

• click on the numberbox
• type the number
• hit return
• voila

note that you won't get any visible feedback that you are in "typing mode"!

so:

• click on the numberbox
• notice that nothing has changed
• type the number
• notice that the numbers appear in the numberbox as you type them
• hit return
• notice that the number will be sent out

if you miss the "hit return" part, then you won't have get any effect.

Awesome, working now. My mistake was being in edit mode when I tried. Locking the patcher seems to allow it to work as specified. Thanks! :)
