really quick q (cant find inbuilt max object)
Hey guys,
a few times i’ve pulled up a simple spreadsheet object in max/msp which looks sorta like MS excel. i can’t find this anymore dispite clicking on every single object, reading documentation, etc..
ive never used any external plugins or anything, and always same version of max.
anyone know how i can find this again? :D
thx in advance!
jit.cellblock (despite the name, a Max object distributed with Max, in
case you don’t use Jitter).
jb
jit.cellblock?
Its icon should be in the "object bar", which is alphabetically sorted
from left to right…

Uhh, when i type jit.cellblock into an object window and pullup the help file on it, jit.cellblock is inside what appears to be a comment window (broken line box) with max lines going to places.. the word is encapsulated as "(jit.cellblock") minus quotes, i mean, doesn’t that mean it’s missing?
it says stuff like ‘click on any cell’ and there ain’t no cell. I just formatted my pc yesterday and installed it, so i don’t know what the hell is going on??
ahhh i figured it out!! maybe someone can verify this?
i was looking at jitter and installed the demo, and then uninstalled it through boredom, and i think because jit.cellblock is -technically- a jitter file, i *think* the jitter uninstaller removed jit.* and sorta forgot that jit.cellblock is included in msp, because i just reinstalled msp right over the top of the old one and jit.cellblock is back again.
maybe a slight thing to fix up in the installer script??
edit: okay so i was working with jit.cellblock and i put one into my patcher, and max crashed. i closed it, i opened my ‘real’ patcher (with no jit.cellblock) and max/msp crashes every time. (???) i’m going to do a full reinstall.
full reinstall,forced deleting the dir, still getting crashes – made a new file, put some stuff in it, saved it, closed max, reopened and works fine.
…max just trashed all my work (1 month)..
is there some tool for manually editing/checking .mxb’s… otherwise i’ve lost everything..
jit.cellblock is EVIL! :(
