I don't know of anyone who's successfully had composition-relative
paths work in an application yet (without managing path building
themselves to some degree) -- I'm sure there's a way though, I just
don't know it.
Okay my curiosity is piqued... Can you clarify what you mean by that
a bit more?
Are you specifically referring to non QCView type apps?
Yep, this is exactly what I'm referring to. QCView is cheating in
this context since it handles all the environment setup
"automagically." When making a QCRenderer, there is something that
needs to happen for compositionURL to be valid (i.e. not / ), but I'm
not sure what it is (I don't spend enough time fighting with this to
figure it out, but I'm hoping that someone else has.. *shrugs*) --
maybe it is handled automatically with QCRenderers too, and I've just
missed the boat on Leopard?
Good point on distinguishing the use-cases though; this is only of
interest when using QCRenderers, not QCViews. Thanks for pointing
that out :)

Subject: Image Unit & CIImage within a QCPlugin ?
To: Discussion list for users of Quartz Composer

Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"
Hello.
I have a particular situation which I have tried to solve with a GLSL
shader that unmasks and unfortunate side effect (the loss of line
strip antialiasing - which I really would like), thus I am attempting
a workaround (of a workaround).
I would like to be able to embed some Core Image processing *within* a
plugin. I know, I know, why not put it externally as an input to the
QCPlugin, and my answer would be that I want to have as much
functionality embedded within the plugin itself, for completeness sake
and so users have the 'proper' experience.
However, I cannot seem to find a way to 'get at' the
QCPluginInputImageSource Image, as it is opaque.
Is it possible to init a CIImage from such an input and pass it to
functions such as lockTextureRepresentationWithColorSpace or
bindTextureRepresentationToCGLContext ?
Curious.

Dear Apple,
Please please please can you arrange to have the little rotary knobs
used throughout your interface (see example, below) controllable using
the mouse scrollwheel? Having to physically move my mouse in circles
to adjust a fiddly floating point number is a usability nightmare.

I'll second that!!
And while you're at it, make the twin-paned Inspector panels
properly resizable. I'm thinking particularly of the one where you
edit a macro's In/Out ports, where resizing the panel only makes the
upper pane larger. This is especially annoying as dragging items in
the lists to reorder ports is very annoying if the list is longer
than the height of the pane. The list auto-scrolls far too fast, so
it's often a frustrating two-stage process to drag an item to where
you want it.
I may submit a bug report about this, I think.
