Hello,

I used pd-0.36 on osx before, but now it wont work anymore. Recently i upgraded to osx version 10.2.6. I installed TclTk8.4.2 and tried to run pd-0.37-test4. I can see the pd window and choose "new" from the file menu. When I try to put something in the new window nothing happens. Also when i open an existing example patch i get a blanco window. The previous version (0.36-something) now has more or less the same problem. On trying to put an object there, pd just shuts down and the terminal says: Consistency check failed: glist_findrtext pd_gui: pd process exited What could be the problem here ?

hi, ...well, I guess you haven't been reading the list the last few days...this is a well known problem, also occurs with 8.4.3...BUT, thanks to Krzysztof Czaja, there is a solution:

--- pd.tk~ 2003-04-06 03:35:29.000000000 +0200 +++ pd.tk 2003-05-29 15:52:16.000000000 +0200 @@ -911,7 +911,7 @@ bind $name.c <KeyRelease> {pdtk_canvas_keyup %W %K %A} bind $name.c <Motion> {pdtk_canvas_motion %W %x %y 0} bind $name.c <Alt-Motion> {pdtk_canvas_motion %W %x %y 4}

• bind $name.c <Map> {pdtk_canvas_map %W %s}

• bind $name.c <Map> {pdtk_canvas_map %W 0}

...if you don't know how to use the "patch" command, then you could open pd.tk in a text editor, search for "bind $name.c <Map> {pdtk_canvas_map %W %s}", and then replace it with "bind $name.c <Map> {pdtk_canvas_map %W 0}" (without the quotes, in both cases)...

...don't forget to search the pd-list archives before asking questions...
