Hi !
is there any option in PD to make complex patches look less messy ?
for example in MAX you can hide all the connections in performance mode..
in VVVV - you can spline the hords
in MAX you also can make hords with different angles.. and so on..
is there any way in PD to tidy it all up ?
i can't find it.
maybe it is really something to do ?
It's a feature, not a bug. Why? At least two reasons comwe to mind
- You can deliberately create messy, uncomprehensible cmoplicated-
esotheric-looking patches which really impress girls/guys
or
- As already suggested it forces you to strictly, unconditionally stick
to the rule: it it starts to look messy, I probably need to make a subpatch along the lines of certain programming theorems that say something like "if a program starts to go beyound the screen you probably need a function" (not sure what the average screen resolution was when it was enunciated though)
Of course 1. is usually more fun, and no one really follows 2. when the deadline is midnight and it is 10.15pm :)

thnx , serg !
