Hi,
There's an object [rootinfo] in my library that gives the path, name and
"parent level" of the root canvas https://github.com/sebshader/shadylib&;
there's also [ggee/getdir] which gives the path of the "parent level" provided
in the argument

{}#yiv5827315665 #yiv5827315665 I’m trying to figure out how to use [loadpanel]
to load a data file from a subdirectory of a patch, and I’m trying to make this
patch and its auxiliary files distributable, so I don’t want to have to use
absolute paths. I’ve searched the archives on this, and there was a recent
discussion about how passing [symbol .( to [loadpanel] didn’t open the
filesystem at a particularly useful (or at least, consistent between platforms)
starting directory. What I understand from that discussion is that there is
still no way to obtain the current patch’s starting directory to enable
relative-path loading. Is that correct? If not in vanilla, are there any
externals? Phil Stone UC Davis
