the left outlet of jit.gl.slab says matrix output if enabled, I checked the documentation and it says the attribute is matrixoutput, but then if I write @matrixoutput 1 in the object box the max window outputs an error saying that matrixoutput is not avalid attribute argument for jit.gl.slab

Hi there,
the left outlet of jit.gl.slab says matrix output if enabled, I checked the documentation and it says the attribute is matrixoutput, but then if I write @matrixoutput 1 in the object box the max window outputs an error saying that matrixoutput is not avalid attribute argument for jit.gl.slab

anything particular you are trying to accomplish?

gl.slab does not support matrix output.

I thought it would because if you hover with the mouse on it's left outlet the hint says "matrix output if enabled".

I'll try and see if I can accomplish what I want to do in the GL domain..

Thanks Robert,

the "slab readback" subpatch contained in Tutorial n. 42 seem to suggest that actual matrix output from jit.gl.slab is possible..

I'm a little puzzled,

No, it's not outputting a matrix. The blue patch cord tells you that.

If you feed the output of the slab into a matrix then it will read back to the matrix - not quite sure what your question is, but if you need a matrix you can do it this way. If you can stay in the OpenGL domain things will be much more efficient.

jit.gl.slab matrix output?
