after a quick test, it appears that the verbose level should be <= 0 like this : verbose(-3,"This is a fatal message"); // appears in red with red background in console verbose(-2,"This is an error message"); // appears in red with white background verbose(-1, "This is a normal message"); // appears in black with white background verbose(0, "This is a debug message"); // appears in grey with white background
if level is < -3, message is displayed like -1 level. if level is > 0, message is not displayed at all
and Gem has a verbose method in CPPExtern.cpp which I guess fordward message to Pd's verbose (but I may be wrong).
Assuming this is the way to use the verbose() function, I will update all occurrence of verbose in my projects to follow this behavior.
Cheers

hi,
I've found this commit [1] where IOhannes change the log level by adding 3. I understand that verbose(0,"foo") will be displayed in debug log level with this. But verbose(1, "cannot use modelloader plugin '%s': %s", key.c_str(), x.what()); and verbose(2, "added backend#%d '%s'", (int)(m_handles.size()-1), key.c_str()); (from [2]) are not displayed in any log level. And I think commit [1] brakes some messages. Should we adjust every verbose() call ? or should we roll back to previous log level ?

Hello,
I'm wondering how verbose() work. I guess it should print some info in Pd's console when Pd's log level is higher than verbose's first argument. With the code [1] modified from examples/template/mycobject.c, I see messages from level 0, 1, 2 and 3 when sending [rats(. Note the
i-3in line 18. Also I didn't find any documentation about this subtraction and many many occurrence of verbose in lots of externals doesn't seem to work (in Gem for example). Did I miss something ?Thanks
Antoine
