Need jscript programmer or guidance
Hi list, in Pure Data I use the data structures objects to display the time structure of a score, as displayed here (all these elements are dinamically created when reading a score file, all information is read from a file):

I wanted to do the same in Max, which comprises:
- the elements to display are only a combination of numbers/strings and vertical lines (of different sizes and thickness), some of them with different colors.
- internally there is saved information such as X+Y positions, other numbers and strings.
- there should be interaction in the black lines: when they're clicked with the mouse, they send their internal data to a receive object.
- such scores must be displayed in a normal dedicated window, as they can be quite long (up to some hours duration), and window sliders are necessary to browse through them.
Creating the objects dinamically isn't an issue, I already did a test using canvas objects. But max doesn't allow to query them, so it seems to me that jsui objects would be necessary; only I don't know how to work with java.
The final question is: is there someone who would like to point me in the correct direction (in case some similar templates exist), or to do this programming in comission?
Best,
Joao
jsui requires JavaScript, not Java (They are verrrry different). You could definitely build a clickable UI like that in jsui. Ive built some kinda similar interactable UIs using MGraphics drawing in jsui.
if the score canvas is really huge it could be pretty cpu intensive doing redraws, so if the score is fixed when in use you may want to be choosy about when drawing happens.
