dear all, i'm attempting to build an abs to control whether or not hitting a key has an effect: i'd like the space bar to do a number of things when in play mode but not in edit mode. i came up with the patch below, however, working on several open patches will screw it up as it works with a counter that keeps track of the number of times command-e has been hit (resulting in 1 or 0 which controls a spigot). i'd like to replace this 'relative' control with an 'absolute' one, in other words i'm wondering whether i can retrieve the mode status of the patch somewhere so i can have that control the spigot. any ideas would be much appreciated. cheers, robbert
