hi list,
i have old patches made with Pdext 42.5. when opened with Vanilla 48.1 i get lots of uncreated objects (of course).
some of them i'm not able to 'repair'. e.g. [symbol2list]
i put in a [declare -stdpath -zexy -stdlib -zexy].
It should read:
[declare -stdpath zexy -stdlib zexy]
(without dashes before 'zexy').
it's possible to create a new [symbol2list] object.
after saving, closing pd, opening again, the new object is not created.
what can i do to resolve this.
Let's hope the typo was the reason for this. If not, then this is odd. I mean, if it works _before_ saving the patch, it is supposed to work after re-loading. I'd run pd in verbose mode. You can add the startup flag '-verbose' (without quotes) in your preferences. When loading [symbol2list], check what it does and whether Pd is looking into the right places.
