Which inlet~? I see that your use-case is centered around connecting this object directly to [inlet~], but in general this just will not be the case, so i think we should disentangle the two objects conceptually. I don't think we have a precedent of a "companion object" that is only auxiliary to another go one. Or put otherwise: do we want to an object that tells us how many connections the [osc~] object that connects to it has? If this doesn't really work (and personally I'm not convinced that it does), merging the functionality into [inlet~] itself might make more sense... mfg.sfg.jfd IOhannes _______________________________________________ Pd-dev mailing list Pd-dev@lists.iem.at https://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-dev
