I would like to be able to open umenu with a bang and then scroll the menu with a game controller. When I find the option I want select it with another bang to instigate it.

I’ve tried using the different modes of umenu but they don’t do what I want because they send each option as I scroll through.

Perhaps I should look to coll? I would much rather do it with umenu though. If possible..

Thanks in advance.

(imagine [number] is your joystick and [button] also =)

Then bang to output. It is actually the first example in the umenu helpfile.

I don’t think there is a way of visually opening the menu up remotely without using the max pupdate message to move the mouse, and something like aka.mouse to simulate a mouse click. But that seems a bit over the top imho.

That example would almost do but I need to be able to view the entire menu.

If possible.

That’s not possible.

However, you can always find (ugly) workarounds with other objects that would “act like” your menu was displayed…
Beware, this kind of patch usually leads to lots of tweaking and I’m not sure it’s worth it.

Anyway, here is an example:

Enjoy

Iv set up Yvans patch and it works great but i need more than one instance of the system with different lists. iv tried copying the system and changing the name on the send and receive signals in the sub patches but it still controls the first system.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
