I was looking at writing my own bezier function to generate curves when I ran across this option to generate a bezier curve in a graph. I was hoping that it would do more than make a nice looking display.

Arrays have an option to generate a bezier curve. In the attached patch, seven points are put into an array and displayed as a bezier curve. It looks nice, but does it have any function? When you read the array, you just get the points you put into it, not the points on the bezier curve. Is there a way to use the bezier curve as a wavetable or envelope, instead of the original seven points?

I've been avoiding externals since the demise of Pd-extended, but I'll check out tabgen. Thanks.

I'm creating a wavetable using sinesum to write harmonics to an array, which works fine for integer overtones. I'd also like to be able to be able to write non-integer overtones and undertones to the array. Is there a way to do it with sinesum or some other function? Or do I have to make a complex expr to write a combination of integer and non-integer overtones to the array?

Thanks, that worked. Is there some Pd doc that I don't know about? I keep running into basic things like this that don't seem to be documented anywhere.

I'd like to make help files for my Pd modules that work like Pd object help files, but I can't find any documentation on how to do it. Where is this documented?

@whale-av Thanks! What is the purpose of the third and fourth outlets? How should I used them when generating stereo output?

[rev3~] has two audio inputs. It it true stereo? The help file doesn't say. It just shows just a single audio source that is routed directly into one input and inverted into the other, but doesn't explain why it does that.

Also, [rev3~] has 4 outputs. What are the functions of the third and fourth outlets? The help file doesn't explain it.

@EEight Thanks, I'll give that a try.

I upgraded to Pd 0.55.2, and still get the same message. How can I find out what the problem is?
