Hi,I usually do this by multiplying the value by -1 and offset it by the range of the first value

hi, IOhannes !
thanks for that info !
i often read on this list that [expr] is slower/computational more expensive etc. than using simple vanilla objects. why is that so ?
in theory, it would make patching more easy as it reduces the number of objects and cords. what are situations where [expr] makes more sense to use ?
expr is slower since the expressions are interpreted, but in practice it probably doesn't matter unless expr is called extremely often. Another alternative is k_cext which compiles the expressions to C, probably making it the fastest alternative: https://github.com/kmatheussen/k_cext
