I am trying to make it as simple as possible for “Board Ops” these are people who might not be savvy with pd and need stuff to be as simple as a “GO” button, spacebar or click

I am still interested in researching a way for pd to be used more like a software like Isadora that allows different patches to be cued for live and theatrical performance. Basically we would like to use Pure Data to cue a theatre show with the media cued from a mouse/keyboard/HID input that steps through a cue list with different pd patches appearing instantly. Something like playlist~ that can choose different pd patches over an hour long program. Has anyone successfully done this?

I wonder why it would be necessary to have whole patches appearing and disappearing on the screen for running a theatre show, but you could try:

[; pd open mypatch.pd /path/to/patch/ (

(see pd-msg/2.msg_and_pd/ )

personally I would make one patch that contains everything and activate/deactivate processes inside that.

If you really want patches to switch visually , there's also the 'vis 1' and 'vis 0' message.

gr,

Tim
