On a plane ride, I fanally got around to learning a bit about the complex data structures. Does anyone have some good examples of how to use data structures? I am trying to sponge as much info as poss...with no shame!
People tend to like that: http://puredata.info/community/projects/convention04/lectures/tk-barknecht/t... (one line!)
Also see my msd-editor in CVS/externals/nusmuk/editor/ and maybe http://royalrabbit.goto10.org/svn/goto10/pd-patches/fbar/pipeseq/ (one line!)
Also, is there a way to select the graphical objects with a mouse inside the data object? It would be really useful to have an identity for each object, to be reported when objects are selected (I could contrive it with Gem, but anyway...)
You mean, select the graphical objects, that make up a *single* instance of a struct-object? That is not possible, however you can select any complete instance and get the pointer to that instance by reading the [struct] object's outlet, which defined that data structure. See doc/4.data.structures/08.selection.pd for an example. Unfortunately this feature is not yet mentioned in struct-help.pd. It was added in pd-0.39 which everyone who is regularily working with data structures should use anyway.
