Hi,
I'm testing on Mac a patch that I developed under windows and [savepanel] does not open the browsing window when banged.
I found a message by Miller of 2006 in the archives saying "I will check it tomorrow".....
How do people using Mac work this around?
thanks m.
I don't follow you, it works here.
Macbook Pro OS X 6.2 - Pd extended 0.41.4

Hmmmmmmm, I tested on 0.40.something AND vanilla 0.42.5 and it didn't work. Is it possible that it is fixed in more recent versions of extended (starting maybe from 0.41.something) but not in vanilla???

No I don't, and I'm sorry if you felt offended. It seemed to me an error that anybody could easily make, not necessarily an idiot, including for example myself. Or maybe I take myself for an idiot.
I need to apologize for my harsh words, [savepanel] only apparently works but in reality saves nothing at all to disk.

I think it is not supposed to; afaik [savepanel] just lets you browse to select a file and outputs its name as a symbol. What you do with it is up to you. It also prompts for confirmation if the file already exists. Another difference with respect to [openpanel] is it lets you write a filename of a file which doesn't exist yet. And it says "save" in the window title.
My problem is it just does not open the browse window on a MacBook Pro 4.1 (intel core duo) Mac Os X 10.5.8........
What you describe [savepanel] should do Matteo, it does alright here (open browser and print typed in filename as a symbol). maybe it is OS related... sorry I can't test previous OS releases.

Ok I see.
maybe it is OS related...
Can anybody confirm the problem in OS X 5.8?
If so, any suggestion for a workaround?
I really need to use the panel to select a path; [savepanel] gives me (well not me exactly) the possibility to choose a file that doesn't exist yet, which [openpanel] doesn't. This is in turn a workaround to the fact that I cannot select a directory with any of the two (openpanel should allow it imho), so I ask the user to enter a dummy file name and take the path until the last "/"....
I works fine for me. I'm using pd-extended 41.4 on macosx 5.8 (macbook
pro).
I know it doesn't help but as you asked for confirmation...

Thank you very much, the information _is_ useful.
So it seems it works on some macs and doesn't on others?? Strange, isn't it? Your os version seems to be the same as "mine"... Is yours an Intel mac? (I am ignorant about macs so I don't know if _all_ macbooks have intel processors)
I ask this because in the 2006 message in the archives it said it didn't work on intel mac.....
Yes it's an intel mac, all macbooks and macbook pro are. The powerpc
models are called powerbook and ibook btw.
