Hi, I re-sending (or forwarding) my first message about cartopol, with the patch I had attached to exemplify the issue. My message was brief then, but it said it all.
Moreover. I'm also attaching print screens of this patch with Pd Extended 0.42 and 0.43, so you can really see what I mean and is going on.
With 0.42, phase comes out negative when it should be positive, but when converting back to cartesian the result matches to the left.
In 0.43, phase comes out correctly, but [poltocar~] ruins everything and the cartesian form comes out all wrong. This means that every spectral processing patch, in Pd 0.43, is already pretty damaged and broken. I did say something back then when I found about it, made some report I believe. But well, I'm glad this is being deeply discussed now.
So never ever mind at all about a new object like [cartopol2~], please.
As you can see, the bug fixing was already worked on, but only half of it (only with cartopol~), all we need now is get on with the fixing in poltocar~. It's just really funny that it was working better when both of them were wrong, hehe...
Now, I'm assuming that the version in 0.43 is the latest and is the one you have. About the bug list then, the right thing to do would be to take [cartopol~] out of the list and just keep [poltocar~], saying something like "wrong conversion".
I haven't checked the code. But the formulas are pretty simple, just basically sine and cosine, so you can't go wrong by fixing it. There must be a minus sing somewhere where it didn't belong, just take it out.
Cheers

cartopol~ and poltocar~ are also buggy
I pointed it out once, but only cartopol~ was corrected and it made it worse. check atatchment.
do you have this covered?
cheers

Hi Alexandre,
Thanks for the report.
Next to working on the help-patches, I am working on creating such a list. I'll put it somewhere public when the patches are done.
So when you find any others, I would like to know.
Greetings,
Fred Jan
hi, you probably know about this bug, but [rand~]'s argument doesn't really work. I'd be happy to help find other bugs, do you have a list of bugs you're working on?
cheers
