Hi there,
I'm on Debian 32-bit with Pd 0.49.
I'm experiencing all the sudden a strange behavior with number boxes, sliders and symbols.
They are sending values when I click and move the mouse but their graphics do not get updated.
I. e. I can change the value on the output of a number box but its graphics are not updated anymore.
If I connect
[prepend set]
|
[ (
I can see the values but the number box itself keeps displaying "0".
When I open the properties of the number box and press Apply or OK the value will be updated to the latest value but then stay there as far as displaying goes. Still sending and receiving without any graphical update.
Does anybody have an idea what is happening and how I can fix this issue?
Thanks!
Ingo
Hi got some problems myself from time to time with GUI elements poorly updating when pd has a very big CPU load, zb several instances of pd running at 60 percent each, developing all day on same patch while running... solution : simplify the patch (remove unnecessary GUI elements) or at least quit and relaunch JM

Thanks for the suggestion, Jean-Marie! That's not an option, though!
I have been working on this patch for more than 10 years fulltime by now.
The graphical editor can already be turned on or off for optimized playing.
But the patches still need to be editable.
It's runnung perfectly on the machine that I use for programming which is the identical hardware as the other units that I'm using.
Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. All other graphical objects except the ones mentioned plus the graphical array are working fine.
By now I'm suspecting some currupted files on the OS.
The first thing I'd like to check is the TCL/TK files.
I need to know where the files (all files) are located and replace them from a system that doesn't show those issues.
The problem is that I have over one hundred of these boxes out there - all over the world … Building a new operating system and making a new image is an option.
However, many people have trouble with creating an image (even though it is fully automated).

For those who are interested what the issue was:
I was moving a window with [hcs/sysgui] automatically during startup.
When the window is visible everything is ok.
When the window is hidden with [*** vis 0( most graphical objects mentioned above stop updating their graphics.
I. e. a slider sends the values but the slider stays graphically at the default setting that it had during creation.
Now I'm moving windows with [hcs/sysgui] only when they are visible and it works again.
