Hi,
does anybody know if and how i can put a PD array inside a Gripd window?
Or is there any other way to have the array graph inside a GUI window?

... using the "table" object instead of "array", but I don't know if this is what you are looking for (though I use it as a patch generic user-interface for drawing 2D graphics like enveloppes, wavetables, etc)
(but sorry it is not Gripd-related)
The differences between "table" and "array" are the following (AFAIK) :
- array is directly put in any patch, whereas table is an unconnected object
whose data appears in a popup window when you click on it (like a subpatch)
- table parameters can be initialized directly ("table my_table 88204" for
example) whereas with "array" you have to do "mouse>2nd_button" to launch the popup array parameters editor
- (at least on my PC) table is easier to manipulate when editing the patch
(especially for big tables/arrays)
(A question for everyone : are there other differencies ?)
I apologized if you were looking for something else ...

There isn't a way in the current release version, but I've been working on this in the development version, and I think I had it working (it's been a while). Unfortunately I have no clue when it will be ready. Probably not too long, there are some other bug fixes I need to look at.

Hi Joe, hi all,

too
long, there are some other bug fixes I need to look at.
i'm working on an alternative wave viewer/editor too. I wonder how you implement it, since there is no dirty flag or comparable for PD arrays. This would imply that an external has to check all the contents all the time to see if something has changed. Have you found another way?
If not, i'd suggest to add a modification date to the array structure, so that (also multiple) array viewers can check if they're up to date. If there are no objections i'll try to add that to the devel_0_37 branch.
best greetings, Thomas
If I recall, I think I just made a generic array viewer for GrIPD that you could send an array index and value from Pd. To use it to view Pd arrays, you parse the Pd array using tabread and send the values in the usual GrIPD way (I can't remember if I made it bi-directional, but it should be easy to implement). You can set this up with a metro object, and this way, the user can control the resolution (both time and array resampling). This avoided issues such as how much data to send over tcp and when to send it (just put the burden on the user!), although it would be nice to have a way for Pd to make callbacks when an array's contents have changed.
