Re: [PD] pd-gui-rewrite testing
Does this wish shell in Contents/MacOS have the Tcl/Tk Frameworks built into it (whether Carbon or Cocoa)? Its working now, thanks.

Re: [PD] pd-gui-rewrite testing
I finally have a custom build of Tcl/Tk 8.5 Carbon that I can swap with the Tcl/Tk 8.5 Cocoa included with Snow Leopard. This is the source of the problems :) So I'll try to address them one-by-one on the tcl-mac list and spare the pd folks. As of today, building from svn still creates the Apple menu item, I don't know if you had tried to fix this or not yet. One thing I noticed is that building pd with the Carbon Tcl/Tk version gives an about Tcl/Tk menu option in the Wish menu, but this is replaced with the About pd menu item when using Tcl/Tk Carbon - why so? It seems appropriate to have it when Pd can be compiled with different versions of Tcl/Tk and the results can greatly differ.

Re: [PD] pd-gui-rewrite testing
Still in OS X 10.6. I don't have one of these problems with Pd-devel-0.43 (dec 15) nightly build, so it must all be because of the tk/cocoa version that you mention. I'm not sure how to report it a tcl mailing list, as I don't know where the code is that implements these things. Does it make sense that the arrow keys are detected differently in Tk/Cocoa, so they are just sent to pd's gui C code as spaces? As for the text color issue in the audio settings, you'll have to point me towards what is controlling that. I'll send you a screenshot after this email. Do you know how I can force configure to use Tcl/Tk 8.5.7/Carbon? I'll use the nightly build in the meantime and let you know what comes up. -rich On Mon, Jan 4, 2010 at 4:40 AM, Hans-Christoph Steiner h...@at.or.atwrote: First off, which platform?

Not to me... it should be the same, that's why its worth reporting to tcl-mac. You don't need to know the exact code that's causing the problem. I read that list too, so I can fill in the details. I just don't have access to a 10.6 machine these days. As for the text color issue in the audio settings, you'll have to point me towards what is controlling that. I'll send you a screenshot after this email. Check out dialog_audio.tcl. Its still mostly the original code, so it can be scary. ;) Do you know how I can force configure to use Tcl/Tk 8.5.7/Carbon? If you put a version of Tcl/Tk 8.5.7/Carbon frameworks into /Library/ Frameworks, it should use them over the build in ones. But that means using the Makefile in packages/darwin_app and running make install.
