I’m wondering if it’s possible to make gridshapes with input
from the mouse. I’ve included a patch with a script, which is
a modification of jitter tutorial 47.

There are some clues on these threads:

but I guess I can’t wrap my head around the syntax (I’ve never used prototyping before).

It might not even be possible, when I save I get the error message
“js jitter listener: can’t make event object”

Any help or advice would be appreciated!

When the mouse is idle, the sphere/torus moves back to the centre position.
I’m pretty sure it’s not supposed to do this.
Anyone confirm if this is a bug? (else, a quirk of my system) …

I know that, with the second script I uploaded, the circles are being created,
they’re just not being placed where the mouse cursor is.

As if there’s a problem with event.args[0] and args[1].
