Re: [PD] Data structure grain weirdness with x-y arrays
You could also update the 'scalar' help patch, which you get when you get help on a visual instance of a data structure. It is in SVN here: http://pure-data.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/pure-data/trunk/doc/pddp/ scalar-help.pd .hc On Apr 22, 2008, at 5:04 PM, Luke Iannini (pd) wrote: On an unrelated note, I just discovered: Option/Command click on an element to duplicate the element (it's best to click and drag since it will appear on top of the element you click on), or just to the left of the element to delete it (when using Option, cursors appear to let one know which operation will occur, but oddly not with Command).
