Re: [PD] end of the vline~

2008-05-08 Thread João Pais
You can follow all those complicated methods (which get more complicated  
if you're planning to use lists), because pd isn't max, and therefore some  
objects must behave differently in order for pd to be independent.

Or, if you don't really need the extra precision in the line, you can use  
Line~ from cyclone. there you have the bang in the end of the line, just  
like max.

 It will end when it's done with doing what you told it to do. ;)

 You always know when a vline~ (or line~ or line) object ends, because at
 some point in the past you have started it with a certain desired
 duration. When that duration has passed, the line ends.

 E.g. you send a 10 1000 to vline, then that segement will end after
 1000 msec. No need for an extra bang.

 If you still want that extra bang, just duplicate your delay time to a
 [delay] object as well, scheduled with a [trigger].

It doesn't seem to me a stupid question at all - also I've heard that
stupid questions don't exist.

I don't think there's any direct way - i.e. any way to have vline
itself tell you when he's finished.

However you can certainly achieve what you need. I can think of 2 approaches:
1) Analize the same messages you're feeding into vline to drive a [delay]
2) Analize the same messages you're feeding into vline to set up a
[threshold~] and manage its output bangs

One or the other may result the simpler depending on the context (i.e.
assumptions and restrictions about the messages that can come to vline
in your particular case).

[PD] end of the vline~

like a bang at the end, or something?  i am feeling quite dense right now.

(ditto with line, or line~)

thanks
