The only reason its not like that is because someone hasn't done the work. I'd love to be able to include that work in pd-gui-rewrite. Be aware, it'll probably require some weirdness, because of the nature of the messages that the pref panels send to 'pd'. But I don't think it would be too hard.
One downside is that it you couldn't use Tcl/Tk 8.5 if you want it to be included in Pd-vanilla. But I am planning on switching Pd-extended 0.43 to Tcl/Tk 8.5 and above, since 8.5 adds a lot of very useful GUI stuff. .hc Rich E wrote: > Hi list, > > I was just thinking, as I noticed that Hans made it where Apple+, opens the > preferences menu on OS X (as does every other native-mac app), why not group > all the preferences in one dialog, with sub dialogs?
