generating umenu

generalh — Sat, 07 Jun 2008 23:23:27 +0000

hello list,
i want to generate a umenu on patch loading
so the only way i found is to generate a file in a folder
and than force the folder to be loaded in the umenu

so far i tried this

– Pasted Max Patch, click to expand. –

but this impose me to pre create (whereas i want to generate it) a
umenu with almost a large size of fake items

i run thru js trying to imitate scriptnew default but those not work
like with the pack and his foo bar arguments because
umenu needs already items before
or did i miss something in the help patches

is there an easier way??

thanks
hubert

I’m not sure I really understand what you’re trying to do, but is this
what you had in mind:
