Thanks again for a terrific toy, Tom.
Just a few ideas which might make it even cooler. Embrace or disregard them as time allows...
- Ability to make multiple instances of the viewing window instead of
one master window.
Ability to nest seperate windows in patches, or even graph-on-parent.
Ability to label each track in the window(s?), either statically by
array-name, or dynamically with the pathname of the file loaded [from soundfiler]
- Of course, eventual multiplatform support would be nice, so people
like Frank could use it in their end-user-oriented patches such as the RRADical patches.
About the keybindings:
I was just playing with the keybindings for getting the array position and length of the mouse selection from the window, and I find it wonderful. It was almost effortless to figure out how to assign a different keybinding to each track in the window (via [route x], [route y], [route q], etc....] I am curious, however, why I cannot see the contents of the packed message coming directly out of the [route] object. Common sense would tell me that the output would be a compound messsage of position and length, but a [print] object still only gives me the key event, and not the numbers. Why is that?
best, d.
