Hi,
I am trying to use iemxmlrpc with the -nogui flag, but I get the error:
Error in XmlRpcDispatch::work: error in select (-1).
Anyone got any ideas about this?
TIA,
Jamie
Hi All,
I have a GUI patch that I'm loading on a number of different computers (OSX, and various flavors of Linux). There are a number of named canvas objects, number boxes, etc with fonts.
The problem is that the fonts look different (particularly size-wise) on every machine.
Does anyone have a method to ensure consistency? Can I add fonts in some folder and force Pd to use those?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks, Mike Wozniewski
Hi, Did you try the menu item : Edit >> Font ?

Yeah, the edit>font menu only changes the fonts of Pd boxes, but those look fine. It's more the fonts that label the number box objects [nbx] and canvas objects [cnv].
I can right click on a [nbx] or [cnv] to open the properties dialogue. But even if I choose times and 12pt for all instances, they will look different on each machine.

Okay,
I think I've figured out the problem. The machines that had font issues did not have truetype font support for tcl/tk. In fact, any tcl/tk apps on those machines had funny looking fonts.
Thanks to Marc Lavallée, who provided the following suggestion:
"On Linux, I would suggest to compile PD against a recent version of Tcl/Tk with support for truetype fonts. Here's a good documentation: http://amsn.sourceforge.net/wiki/tiki-index.php?page=Installation +Instructions#tcl/tk "

Does this mean we can have impliment the PDDP template for help patches and it'll look the same on all platforms?
did you try it?

No... and my patch still looks at least a bit "different" on the various machines, but at least the fonts are huge and highly aliased anymore.
