Hi !

I just noticed that the pattr object has a a "dictionary" function, which has a description that says that pattr should output a dictionary in its left inlet, but it doesn't do anything. Moreover there is no documention about it. So was it an idea that was aborted in the developpement or is there really something to do with it?

I'm trying to manage info of my patchers with dictionary, so this question is quite relevant for me.

Thanks

Nico

For me it works basically the same as with other data types. Just send the output message from dict (e.g. dictionary u668000441) directly to pattr.

ok, I missunderstood, I thought that this function was meant to give infos of any bound object in a dict.

Thanks
