do not alter objects' position in presentation_mode.

That got me very disturbed, because I just have built my whole patch.

Yes, I know that there are "presentation_rect" messages, but they are no use with my patch.

The idea is that you move many many sliders in various places and "offset" mechanics allowed me to have very satisfying effects.

Should I throw out my 2 months of work or is there any solution to:

- make "offset" work in presentation_mode;

- automatically copy patching_rect attribute to presentation_rect without knowing the former?

Any ideas? You may really save me with them!

Hi!
I discovered that [script offset] message to [thispatcher] do not alter objects' position in presentation_mode.

That got me very disturbed, because I just have built my whole patch.

Hihihi, I figured it out, but this is a fast and not very elegant solution, you may do much better than that.

 to dump message and everything is updated when I move my mouse.

Could it be a bad solution due to the possible high CPU usage (constant dumps?)

Still however: are there any "offset"-logic messages to presentation_mode?

Position of every [slider] has been already stored in [coll]. I connected [mousestate] to dump message and everything is updated when I move my mouse.

I'm not sure I understand your question. See [bpatcher]'s Help file, "using offsets" tab, which is in presentation mode (go to edit mode to see how it works). The standard way to make the content of a [bpatcher] move is to use the 'offset' message to [thispatcher] (not the script message).
