If you are using Pd-extended or Pd-l2ork and your abstractions aren't trying to immediately loadbang a message to an outlet when they instantiate, just use [initbang] and it will work, regardless of whether you are creating all or your abstractions in zero logical time or sporadically at various times. Unfortunately [initbang] does not exist in Pd-Vanilla, and there is no process to get it into Pd-Vanilla. If you are dynamically creating all your abstractions in one go, you can manually send a loadbang to your abstractions once you've created them. If your abstraction is [foo] then do this: [loadbang( | [send pd-foo.pd] That will trigger all the [loadbang] objects inside all the [foo] abstractions that exist in the current Pd instance. If you are dynamically instantiating your abstractions sporadically, and you want to make sure you're only sending loadbangs to abstractions that haven't fired one yet (or you want to confine the whole process to the scope of a canvas and its children, rather than global scope) just use [initbang]. If you really must do it without [initbang] check the archives for solutions, but do pay attention to how much more knowledge and time those solutions require than simply instantiating a single [initbang]. -Jonathan > >Any hints welcome! >Josep M >_______________________________________________ >Pd-list@iem.at mailing list >UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management -> >http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list > > > _______________________________________________ Pd-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management -> http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list
