I posted this to the puredata.hurleur.com forum, but didn't get any responses.
I'm brand new to pd.
I'd like to make a template that represents the midi channel by color. So I'd like to change the channel number to one between 0-999, say
[channel]
|
[* 171]
|
[mod 1000]
|
[drawpolygon $1 .....]
The problem is, how do I call the channel field of the struct from inside the template? I know I can call channel directly inside [drawpolygon ....], but then I can't do any arithmetic on it before using it as a color.
I know I could define a new field in the struct, say clr, set up an abstraction to define it correctly from channel, then call clr inside [drawpolygon ....], but that seems ugly.
