I'm quiet new to Max. I'm currently working on a project where a video adjusts the parameters of a granular synth. 

Depending on which color in the picture takes up the largest amount of space in the picture, it will trigger the granular parameters to adjust according to a preset.

So far I managed to calculate the percentage of each color in the picture and using pak to store the values and outputting the largest number with zl.nth 

How can I follow back the largest number to know which color it is coming from and therefor trigger a signal to choose the according preset for the color? 

If my question is still unclear, lets say I have:

How can I let Max know that 40 is the largest number and that it's coming from Blue and therfor trigger the number 2 to switch to preset 2 in pattr.

Beginner here: When outputting the largest number in a list, how do I let max know where this number is coming from

Hi again, I found out how it works. I missed the second outlet on the zl.sort 0 object. It will output the sorted indexes of the list. With that I used zl.ecils to output the last/right number in the list and get the according index for the largest number. With that I can use the index for triggering the proper preset in the pattr. object:)
