Hello. Purr Data 2.4.9 is now available:

https://github.com/jonwwilkes/purr-data/releases/tag/2.4.9

Please report bugs here:

https://git.purrdata.net/jwilkes/purr-data/issues

This release fixes some regressions with iemgui and canvas dialogs from the previous release. It also adds a Raspbian Stretch binary to the release while removing the Debian Jessie arm binary (I think I'm the only one using that one on my Chromebook, but you can still compile it without much trouble).

Hey

I compiled 2.4.9 from source this morning and I think i've found a couple of bugs (I may be mistaken though). I've noticed that [shuffle] will occasionally repeat numbers in a sequence and the when I try to open the file contained within [coll] I get the error:

legacy tcl command at 182 of ../shared/hammer/file.c: hammereditor_open .620f40 600x600 {coll: Untitled} 1
legacy tcl command at 229 of ../shared/hammer/file.c: hammereditor_setdirty .620f40 0

The work around for me currently is to use [dump( into [print].

I'm on macOS 10.12.6

cheers

@polyphuckin I've been meaning to use the internal Purr Data text editor for the external libraries that need a text editor.

Currently [coll] isn't hooked into a text editor which is why you get the "legacy tcl" message to the console.

Hi,

is it possible to open more than one instance of Purr Data on windows?
I tried using the console but I had no luck. Would be nice to be able to open another instance when the patches get heavy.

Regards,

@xgr Yes, You can use the -unique flag on the command line to achieve this.

Great! Thanks. It works!

any chance tof/pmenu will be fixed in the future?

i notice it is included in the release but does not work.
i also see you have a dropdown object in the put menu. but it would be great to have options. (that work on vanilla also.)

@youaresound Do you need the menu to extend past the bounds of the window?

If that's not a requirement I can take a shot at it.

hi @jancsika

idealy i would like it to, but have been using pmenu regardless as of the available options seems to work best for me.

also notice that cyclone/MouseState also does not work yet...
as well as
[;
pd audio-properties( is there a separate message for that?
