Re: [PD] why not adding other boxes like gatom from objects?

And finally, to complicate things further, arguments would be also a nice feature to have in typed gatoms: limits, send/rcv, labels, or array name, size, etc That's actually a good argument. With IEM GUIs, the argument list is so long that it is not really practical to type it out, but with gat

Re: [PD] why not adding other boxes like gatom from objects?

Here's my 2 cents, if I understand porres' question right. Personally, I always type iemgui names, to be honest. But, I think typing "floatatom" or "symbolatom" (or "listbox") into an object would be cumbersome at first glance, and we would need an alias to make it worth. In that sense, thei

Re: [PD] why not adding other boxes like gatom from objects?

I think he means creating a gatom by typing something in an object box. Like you said, you can create a nbx2 with [nbx] or a bang with [bng], but there is no way to do that for gatoms. I think the reason is that the IEM GUI objects have been designed as externals and just happened to get inclu

[PD] why not adding other boxes like gatom from objects?

Hi, I wonder what's the reasoning to not be able to load something like a gatom from an object. this is more of a curiosity. I'd like to be able to do that, but I don't have a compelling case/reasoning cheers ___ Pd-list@lists.iem.at mailing list UNSUBS

Re: [PD] Hide backslash escapes in symbol atoms

intuitively i would prefer something less ugly than '\ ', e.g. "␣". As I've written elsewhere: as simple rule could be "show what you type". In a list box (and many other objects) you have to explicitly type '\' to get a whitespace inside a symbol, so I think it's also fine to display it as suc

Re: [PD] Hide backslash escapes in symbol atoms

OK Roman and Christof, after some reflection I think now you are right, to assume different behaviors for different contexts! - in a symbol atom, a space would be implicitly part of the symbol (if this is accepted); - in a list atom, space is the delimiter, so if you want an actual space it has to
