a dotted line indicates that the object can't be created, i think it gets the status of a comment. you also see it in the pd window: sigmund~ ... couldn't create. [sort] is part of zexy, works for me also in 0.39.2-ext-test7. do other zexy objects get created? [sigmund~]--which looks really interesting!--works only on 0.40.2 for me-- it's in miller's 0.40.2 and in the autobuild of 18 march i'm trying out. the help-file says 'updated for 0.40' though, so i don't know its history. btw the autobuild comes with the warning stuff may not work--in my case, [moog~] for example won't be created. cheers, robbert

I think this is a result of my lack of experience with PD, but when I create an object and put sigmund~ in it the border stays dotted. The same thing was happening when I tried to use sort (which I thought was built-in, although I could be wrong).

Appologies for my lack of experience, but where would I get zexy? Or check to see if I have it? Likewise, for 0.40.2, where would I get that? From http://puredata.info/downloads or elsewhere?
Thanks again, and sorry if these are questions with obvious answers. -Jared
zexy is one of the libraries that comes with pd-extended. on osx, ctrl-click the application and select 'show package content', Contents/Resources/extra should have zexy somewhere in there. you can also find it in cvs: if you want to build your own pd you can have a look at the how-to-build-pd-ext... and the fink page, if you're on osx (sorry, i forgot which system & version you're on?) http://puredata.info/docs/developer/darwin/?searchterm=faq* http://puredata.info/docs/developer/MacOSXFink/?searchterm=faq* i think the easiest way is using pd-ext, and i suppose [sigmund~] may also be included in the nightly builds of 0.39.2 these days? cheers, robbert

ftp://ftp.iem.at/pub/pd/Externals/ZEXY/
however, this might not be the most uptodate version, which you will only get via CVS (see puredata.info for more info on this); in the latter case, you will have to compile it yourself.
