very nice improvement of gate. but I would change the "max_10_outlet-restriction".
I should have thought about it right away. Thanks for the addition... Another question remains: How can the outlets be accessed in the gui? If there are more than 6 outlets even now the outlet connectors get blurred as the width of the object is too small.
Is there a way to stretch the object horizontally?
I didnt have any time to test the pd-max compatibility lib. maybe there will be a conflict with gate-object? in next-max of the early 90's, the left input was the contol-input, the same in max-msp (i think). so i will test the max-compatibility lib and decide to rename gate-object. the change is in the attachment.
You are right: The inlets are still the other way around in Max. I left it that way mainly for backwards compatibility reasons in pd and because it makes more sense if the control input is the right one. How shall I go about it? It could be changed using a proxy and we could use two different names. For Max compatibility it would be nice if the name for the pd-style object would change (and also the handling of creation arguments), but that would break backwards compatibility in pd.
Yours, Orm
P.S.: BTW: What about a Max compatible "switch" object? Does something like that already exist in pd? I need something like that all the time.
