Hi... How would I go about making a Stand alone application from a Quartz file?
Take a look at the developer examples, specifically at "Performer" and "Player" in /Developer/Examples/Quartz Composer/Applications.
From what I've read you can use Xcode - are there some online tutorials for this?
If you don't know Objective-C and Cocoa yet, you'll have a lot to learn before you can expect any meaningful results. There is a lot of good documentation for Xcode on the net and probably on your hard drive. Don't get me wrong, it's just that this is not a trivial task. You have to understand and write a Cocoa application to get what you want.
can they run on PC's as well?
No, the Quartz Composer framework only exists for Mac OS X, there is no way to run them on other operating systems.
sorry I ment to say "Also will the stand alone apps work > WITHOUT < custom patches installed" (sloppy typing )
You can load QC plugins on demand, so you can load your custom patches from within your application bundle. I don't remember the API for that right now, just take a look at the documentation.
If you have any specific questions regarding Quartz Composer or Cocoa related problems, feel free to ask them here or on the Cocoa-dev list. Just make sure you take a good look at the documentation before you do.
Have a nice day, Marco _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list. They will be ignored.
