weird bug: struggle with bpatchers and pattrstorages
hi there,
as so often, i'm strugging with the following scenario:
i have 6 instances of the same bpatcher.
each bpatcher has a pattrstorage inside, that is named by an argument of its bpatcher (1_storage, 2_storage...)
i somehow can't manage to save and recall settings i've stored –
when closing in individual bpatchers when closing max. i'm prompted
to save one json file (i assume of only one of the bpatchers, although there are actually six).
can anybody hint me on a route to get this to work?
thanks!
edit: for anybody who has the same problem:
after some trial and error (and as so often, a soothing chat with wetterberg) it appears:
argumenting pattrstorages with only a number doesn't appear to work. json files are not stored – one is not prompted to store them. so: [pattrstorage #1_storage] (resulting in e.g. 1_storage, 2_storage..) fails.
argumenting pattrstoraged with a word how ever did appear to work in my case! i'm relieved! :) giving each bpatcher a unique argument such as "first", "second" etc and using this argument as the full name of the pattrstorage object (pattrstorage #1) does the job.
yeah, this doesn't seem documented?
