Hi, is there a way to do this from js? Think I need to send a message directly to inlet 2 but can't remember/figure out if this is possible from js?

set-divisor-of-a-object-from-js

There are a handful of different ways to do this with js:

function setdiv(v) {
	var obj = this.patcher.getnamed("div");
	obj.message("ft1", v); // or obj.message("in1", v);
}

function setdiv2(v) {
	var obj = this.patcher.getnamed("div");
        // uses some mystery 'newex' sauce
	this.patcher.message("script", "replace", "div", "newex", 0, 0, 0, 12.5, "/", v);
}

function setdiv3(v) {
	this.patcher.newdefault(300, 400, "message", "@text", v, "@hidden", 1, "@varname", "tmpmsg");
	this.patcher.message("script", "connect", "tmpmsg", 0, "div", 1);
	var tmpobj = this.patcher.getnamed("tmpmsg");
	tmpobj.message("bang");
	this.patcher.remove(tmpobj);
}

thx ben - very helpful. It was the first form I'd used in the past, just couldn't remember the format.
