So that's why I guess it has to be an object... Moreover, some objects in pd have this interesting behavior.
When you have an argument in [*~], for example, it turns the second inlet into a data only inlet (no signal). I found this behaviour even in some externals like [>~] in zexy, so I wonder if this is some restriction of pd objects itself, or if it was just a design option that was replicated in zexy on purpose. If I have to do this as an object, I'd like it to maintain a signal inlet even though I have number argument. So I hope there's nothing "weird" in Pd that doesn't allow this to happen. cheers 2015-02-24 14:26 GMT-03:00 Alexandre Torres Porres <[email protected]>: > I thought about it, but the the problem is that I'd like the signal to > update the incoming value even if it is 0... > > so it doesn't quite make it. > > thanks > > > 2015-02-24 14:20 GMT-03:00 Joe White <[email protected]>: > > Hey Alexandre, >> >> Does this do want you want?
