yea, there is no explanation of the syntax. the first number is the value that you want to go to. the second value is the duration it takes to go to that value and the third nmber is the time when to start with the action.
99 1000 5000 means go to 99 in 1000ms but wait for 5000 ms before you start. the problem is, if you send another message 0 500 1000 before the 5 seconds of the first message passed then it overwrites the first message and goes to 0 after 1 second. (and if you were at 0 nothing happens.)
the message in the help patch should go to 1 over a duration of one second, then jump to zero after one second and then ramp up again starting after 1 second (counting from the time when you clicked).

hi all.
just wondering if i am the only one who has missed the point when it comes to vline~. i know this has been around for quite some time now but i am confused as to how the object actually works. in the documentation there is an explanation that i feel is a little hard to understand.
the message box says ramp up, jump down, then ramp up again
| 1 1000, 0 0 1000, 1 1000 1000 (
yet when i press it only ramps upto 1 and thats it. now i'm trying how to use it and make it work but i can't figure out the syntax.
could someone point me in the right direction. perhaps i'm being completely stupid and i've missed something simple.
thanks
