Hi
When I look at it, it seems like the RESTORE button gives caretaker a |load RRADICAL( + bangs the outlet, where a manually sent load RRADICAL message would not send the bang after restoring. so you have to take care of that in some other way.

Hi there:
HELP!!!!!!!!!
I have been trying to figure out this question with careGUI of rradical abstraction, but am getting nowhere.
I thought when you hit the RESTORE button, it sends a "load RRADICAL" message into [caretaker $1], so I thought if I pass "load RRADICAL"
message
from the inlet of [careGUI], it will restore the presets.
I can pass the "file /directory" message into [careGUI] and then hit
RESTORE
button, it works. But if I pass the "file /directory" message followed by "load RRADICAL", nothing happens.
I am sure its really simple, but my brain is stuck...
Cheers

hi:
Do you mean in the [pd guts] of [careGUI], the RESTORE button has this:
[inlet] | [load RRADICAL] | | [t b a] | | | | | [caretaker $1] | [outlet]
If this is what you are referring to, I thought the bang to the outlet is just for signaling that the restoring is complete. Where as the restore is done in the [caretaker $1] by [load RRADICAL] message.
I have also tried to put a [print] in the [caretaker $1] to see if there is any difference between the message sent by the RESTORE button and the message sent from [careGUI]'s inlet, but as far as I can tell, there is no difference, that's why I cam puzzled.
Thanks

Hi:
Wait!
I got it now, the message "load RRADICAL" works perfectly. But after doing that, because there is no bang to signal the completion (as you pointed out), I have to set the substrate myself.
So I was looking at the wrong place all alone;(

Well, the "load RRADICAL" is a message to the pool inside the caretaker object, which names a shared data space of all "pool" objects to be "RRADICAL". This was done, so that different pool namespaces could be used if needed. "load RRADICAL" will not load anything from any files. This is, what "restore" is supposed to do, which also will send out the [bang( to the outlet.
