The 1st circle is under the 2nd,

you mean, under the last one? (which makes sense, since they're drawn in creation order)

and Pd currently registers a click with the object at the bottom. But is that a feature or a bug?

you mean the print coming from the vertex struct, giving the individual y values of each scalar in the array? that's a bit strange, never seen it. trying to adapt plot's help file doesn't replicate the behavior as well.

Either way, if it's implementation specific it then writing the patch as you suggest would work correctly under one implementation

while it wouldn't the move the circle at all under the other.

hmm, am not really understanding what you mean. but I have to work on something else right now, can't do much more for the time being.

Subject: Re: [PD] Data structure array with last element pointing back to first element

wouldn't it be simpler to compare the value of the 1st point with the last one, without creating the new variables? it's too late now, can't give a concrete example.

or, this is a situation where a "change" identifier for arrays would come in very handy (which already exists for loose pointers). then the metro hack wouldn't be necessary.

Here's a quick hack-- didn't check it for bugs.

The real solution would be to add a "-c" flag to [plot] to draw the trace back to element 0:

[plot -c etc.]

-c is the same as curve, right? an extra parameter for the stepness of the bezier would also be nice
