hello, [trigger b b b b] | | | | D C B A will do to A, B, C and D. if you want to do C and D only depending of the result of B, the best "pd" solution is not to stop the trigger. You should use 2 trigger : [trigger b b] | | B A | [test result] | [select 1] | [trigger b b] | | D C
(your test and select can be replace with a single [moses] object, or a spigot, depending on the output of B) I hope that help Cheers, Cyrille Le 17/03/2021 à 18:29, adam johnson a écrit :

A feature not existing because of the difficulty of adding it would be one possible answer to my question, so I checked the code before coming here and it turned out to be the expected for loop. >you still have to come up with an example where it gets so ugly it's >hard to bear. Why? I never said it is hard to bear, I said it was easy enough to work around and implied that being able to break out of trigger would make it neater and more readable, and at times it would. Most things in life would probably be unbearable if we waited until things got difficult to bear before even asking why. >what are the chances that while you clean up the patches so they are >presentable you discover that whatever you thought you needed a >stoppable trigger evaporates? It is in cleaning this patch that the question arose, but I never said I needed it, I did not request a feature. I plainly stated that I suspected the fault was with my understanding and not pd. Most languages give you simple ways to break out of a sequence of events, but pd seems to treat it as jumping off a cliff. As I said in my first post, I am asking why, not how to do this, just trying to understand the logic of pd so I can use it better. _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management -> https://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list
