Hi Oliver,

thank you for the knob-patch, it looks very nice, but for me it´s a bit to complicated.

It worked in your ol_knob-help patch very well, but when I copy it and pasted it in a new patch,

I get a couldn't create message

that's because the abstraction (as well as the "gifs" folder) must be in one of your search paths (you define them in the preferences)

And I don`t know how to create the knob as like as H-slider.

as long as "ol_knob.pd" is in your search path, you just create an object box and write "ol_knob". this creates a default version. you can then set it's parameters just like any PD-native GUI with right-click/properties (thanks to IEMGUTS, my swiss army knife for PD hackings)

Anyway, don`t care

the mknob works for me easily and nice!

great ! as i said, [ol_knob] is just a personal user-interface, that i hacked for my own goals. and yes, it's bit of an overload for such a simple task. mainly i wanted to check the possibilities of working with dynamically loaded gif images.

best

oliver
