Hi, I've been looking at the the compositions mentioned in this thread.
I notice both Jelly and Arabesque have JavaScript patches containing 'hard-wired' presets. This isn't quite what I was after- what I really wanted is a way to temporarily save the current settings of the composition into one of a number of 'Memory Locations'. Having said that, I can see that having a number of hard-coded presets could also be useful. I'm intrigued by the idea of creating a preset-management plugin. I've been working up to creating a few of my own custom QC objects myself. Long way to go though, as I've only just started my 'Beginning MacOS X Programming' book ;) I'm not sure how it would be possible to save presets with the composition, however, unless they can somehow be written on-the-fly into the file as meta-information. The ideal might be to be able to write presets into an XML file in ~/Library/Preferences. alx --- Alessandro Sabatelli <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > It's more or less the same as the one found in > Arabesque though it > will output a formatted string of the current > inputs.
