Dear all,

my question is simple: is there a way to put a javascript source in a Max7-equivalent to the "jsextensions" folder from Max 6, that doesn't need to create a specific package for that? The "Cycling '74" folder is now included in the Max7-App, I'd rather not modifying it.

Best,

Alexis

Hi,

It looks like you can now make a package (which is just a directory) in Documents/Max 7/Packages
(see https://docs.cycling74.com/max7/vignettes/packages)

For example, I put a file in Documents/Max 7/Packages/hello/jsextensions/hallo.js and the functions defined in it were accessible from a [js] object when I restarted Max.

Hi Steven,

thanks for the tip! I indeed already tried to put the js in a fake package in the "Documents/Max 7/Packages" folder, but I did not think about creating also a jsextensions subfolder. Now it works.
