Moving an object with script offset $1 0 – in presentation mode

themusicalduck — Mon, 06 Feb 2012 20:47:52 +0000

I have a live.tab object that I’d like to scroll across from one part to another of my patch.

If I have a message object “script offset compact $1 0″ connected to a thispatcher object, then the tab (compact) object will happily scroll from side to side if I feed the message object a float number.

But as soon as I switch to presentation mode, the tab object won’t move at all.

I have tried using “script offset compact presentation_rect $1 0″ instead, but the object just stops moving altogether, in either mode.

Is it possible to do this in presentation mode?

I still can’t figure this out. I’m now trying to resize a panel using “script size w h”, which again works fine in patching mode, but I cannot persuade it to work in presentation mode.

Alternatively, if you absolutely must use thispatcher for some reason:

Great, thanks very much.

And now I’ve discovered what the “drunk” object does too.
