I'm on pd-0.47-1 binary downloaded from UCSD [mac 64-bit]. I've created a clone of an abstraction that has the left inlet as a signal inlet.. from the docs I'd expect I can send a |vis 5 1( message to that inlet and display the patch but I can't. If I create another inlet, to the right of that inlet, which is a control inlet, I can send the vis message to that and my instance does pop up but it does seem to me that the |vis( message should always go into the left inlet to keep things consistent?
I attached an example, leftsig_test.pd is the patch to open. BTW, this clone stuff is really making me wish we could have abstractions that take both a signal and control info on a single inlet [like dac and some other tilde objects].. I've created a wrapper around clone to play with cascading abstractions and it would be nice if I could have my wrapper operate the same as I'm assuming clone should? I know there was discussion before.. maybe [inlet~] could actually have 2 outlets, a signal outlet and a control outlet? -Alex
