This is just the same as else where. The prefs panel currently only shows 10 items. > Isn't it > possible on OS-X to tweak a preference file once and for all and use > it with each new Pd version like the ~/.pdrc and ~/.pdsettings files > are kept on Linux? Or asked in a different way: how do you make a new > pd-extended use a personal plist? That is done by having a preference file (called org.puredata.pd.plist) in ~/Library/Preferences. To quote Hans [1]: "Pd-extended.app/Contents/org.puredata.pd.default.plist This one comes with Pd-extended and sets the default preferences. If someone creates, ~/Library/Preferences/org.puredata.pd.list, this one will be ignored. Pd-extended.app/Contents/org.puredata.pd.plist If this file is present inside of the Pd-extended.app, then that Pd- extended.app will use those preferences, and ignore any other, always." This is how it works in the Pd-extended-0.39.2 release and is intended, as i see it. That said there might be issues whit this exact feature in the nightly builds, which relates - directly i think- to what Robbert experience. See [2] aka bug report #1826701.
