hi oliver, looks like text sequence is broken. all the flags (-t, -w,
-g) only work if you provide a text name as the first creation
argument. this also means they don't work with data structure
pointers.

can you file a bug report?

regarding your second question:

the -s flag needs a data structure template (struct) together with the
field name. every [text define] is actually an instance of a struct
named 'text' with a field called 't' (the actual text buffer).
this is similar to [array define] which is an instance of struct
'float-array' with field 'z' (the actual array). see [pd define] in
array-object-help.pd.

both structs live in hidden canvases. try [;pd-_text_template vis 1(
and [;pd-_float_template vis 1( :-)


thanks a lot for this in-deep knowledge !

bug reported !

best

oliver
