I've put together a little abstraction intending to efficiently get slide to the end of a line. There is a qmetro which ought to be on while the output is not equal to the input, however I'm not getting the correct result from the !=. Is this a rounding error or data type mismatch? What's going on here? Secondly, is there a better way to lerp in vanilla max?

i am a bit too tired to think... but i think it is because of the calculation which happens inside the slide object.

have you tried using "if delta == 0 " ? that should work better.

[delta] does not exist, but i guess you know what you need to do.

btw, your qmetro is much faster than the mouse data. what about using another line with the same speed like the mouse instead of the metro?

I went ahead and implemented quadratic and cubic ease in/out in a line type setup. This would make a sweet external (surprised it hasn't been done already?), though I don't have time to dig in to the API right now. . . . these abstractions ought to do it for now:)

slide rounding error? lerp line?
