It seems that if you [print] from the element's struct you get 'click messages' with pointers for every element in the array when clicking, is that it?
I guess this same [struct] should then just also send a 'change' message for the pointer of the element that is being changed. It does make sense and seems like a natural thing given how stuff works in general. I'd like to see that! I haven't looked at the code, but I guess you could just open this request on github. cheers Em sáb., 10 de ago. de 2024 às 12:06, Pier Bar <pier.ba...@gmail.com> escreveu: > Thank you for the advice, I didn't know that Purr-Data had this capability > for arrays!
