hi there,
sorry to be one of these guys that just complains about bugs when he clearly hasn't even bothered looking into it himself, but are there plans to do anything about the slow array display in the new pd test releases (higher than test4 i think)? it seems to be trying to draw every sample of the array to the screen (even when there is only enough pixel-realestate for 100 samples or so)... so if you have a "big" array (like 1 second, 44100 samples) then this takes a lot of cpu just being on the screen.
i did a search of the archive (i haven't been paying much attention to this list recently), but couldn't see any recent mention of it...
really i just want to know if this is a "known problem"..
is it technically possible for someone to make an "arrays, the old way" external? :)
i don't really fear change... honest :)
pix.
Hi, i have another wish... i'd find it more convenient if the array display would draw the peak value of the samples contained in one pixel. I don't know what the current policy is, but when the samples in a buffer consist merely of short clicks it can happen that you don't see any signal at all.
greetings, Thomas

I'd prefer to see the minimum and maximum value of the samples contained in one pixel. I experience performance problems with arrays and low-latency audio (win2k/asio), so I think such optimalisation there would be nice.
