[PD] plot - 1000 element limit?

2020-07-22 Thread Derek Kwan
Hello list,

Long time, no e-mail.

It seems there's a limit in [plot] to only plot the first 1000 elements
of a struct's array (at least for me on Ubuntu 18.04, pd 0.51)? I was
wondering if there was a practical and/or performance-related reason to
that limit (and also if said limit could be raised).

I might have a weird use case, but I've been building a video player with
16-parameter biometric data associated with each frame so I've been
using arrays in [struct]s to store the data and [plot] to plot it all
out with a cursor drawn with [drawpolygon] to track the position in the
data with the current video position. I've been working with up to
10-12ish minute long videos so that's arrays of about length 11000 with
16 elements per entry each and so I've been breaking the data up into
1000-element to get around that 1000 element limitation.

On my 5-ish year old laptop and loading up the data from a text file and
plotting everything and togglinng and untoggling plotting certain
parameters, the performance isn't so bad, definitely usable (just end
up with a horizontally lng canvas that you have to navigate with a
fair bit of scrolling).

[PD] [PD-announce] ELSE 1.0 beta 29 with live electronics tutorial is out.

2020-07-22 Thread Alexandre Torres Porres
ELSE 1.0 beta 29 with live electronics tutorial is out. This library
version needs at Pd version 0.51-0 or above! Most importantly, I fixed a
bug in [dir] where it couldn't load absolute paths in windows. I also made
nice improvements to [keyboard] and included a new GUI object for text
input (messbox), which is like an atom box (where you can insert data while
in run mode) but for any kind of message.

There's other stuff and breaking changes as usual as this is still a beta
project, so check the detailed changelog at
https://github.com/porres/Live-Electronic-Music-Tutorial/releases/tag/v1.0-beta-29
  - where you can download this and earlier versions. You can also get else
directly via Pd (in Help => Find Externals). This download also contains
the "Live Electronics Tutorial", in a version compatible to this version of
ELSE. Find the "Live Electronics Tutorial" folder inside the 'else' folder.

cheers
