Display the Contents of Coll in the Max patch
Hi Everyone,
What i want to do is display the contents of a coll as it updates in a comment box or some other kind of neat and tidy display?
Any ideas?

Maybe with a jit.cellblock? See ther refer message.
yes cellblock is really suitable for that . I had also good relation with [Dict] and [Dict.view] objects ,those are directed for such scenarios i guess . take a look .
Great help guys, thanks a lot (sorry for the late reply, internet down at my house!!)

Wow. I've been wanting this feature for ages - view a coll in realtime to debug things. I had no idea that Jitter had useful 'non-video' objects. I'm gonna explore some more
router, pak, ubumenu, bline, qmetro, patcherargs, bgcolor and some others also originally were introduced with the jitter package.
(i am not sure why cellblock once was called "jit." at all, mabye to distinguish from the former third party version?)
jit.lcd and jit.pwindow can be quite useful for building custom interface elements.
jit.matrix can make a great (half-3D) lookup table/database for numbers, for in-patcher applications as well as exporting the matrix content in binary format.
TIL this! Thanks for the trick!
However, is there any way to filter some columns? Specifically the index, it's not always necessary.
once you refer coll it is not possible to filter out parts of it in cellblock
but you can hide for example coll index using message
col 0 width 0
or any other column
That will do! Thanks!
yeah, "width 0". :P
