Hello everyone,
pretty simple question but some how I keep getting an error message in the max window while using groove along with unmenu and prepend set message here is a copy of my code (pretty simple messing around with the groove tutorial which i later wish to granulate)

Then, in Max, select New From Clipboard. ----------begin_max5_patcher---------- 787.3oc2X1sjZCBEG+53SQlL8pNtNAxGD6c84nSmNQClkcR.GC15t6r9rW3P T2OhtjrJtsWHwPHve9w4b3PdbjWvLwFZSf+27+gum2ii77fpzU30duWPc9l4 U4MPyB3z+HlcWvXyijzMRn5YqWrftZqeysB8uI4rEK7iBCC8w6ZqXsrhJk2u jZFufEUhbYvX0KmyKC7+Ya6VH3xF1CPqP3IgsUuLWN+VFu7WqnykldHlfTO1 OJIVeAkDoufCmDtuu3qqYb0nBZG0VIq.jrZZbCJL3YiJOuFF0fuuhkWEbnOL RG5DrtxmFMRWL97vr6D7xp6au3JxArJBMEHGIs2japK.25ZJe8Qo.iCL.98d LP+Zs146aJSRqaqKXNspRn6ow5ByRw9aUFzGFfNnINAfYHvxvvdyRReYYz4y HrbkP7a5Ve..mvjqgUx0xoi+M.6OTZqKKX+MEeZjE8VjEeEQ1N+VCxfRiWK5 h60Z.UFAfW5.h24BuV07T0IWNLDkBgqLgvR5u6FF6BJTSaZxKouw5QYjbTz7 AnABCWhvSRT2jcLbf6.G81n.8Izn.SfHJjjgZTD9+fqAFE8gn.xIaqKEkkUz Stu9o1tMJCL3igKQjck1OIy92wrFkXh0QF5BZ5ULAWU9AaeuDJFTxCfQNBYL .FvtfwtHh2QfxxUzkTdgeCUdV2GHF74IPBUlXg8iInqHSpXb5VKR8bvYLDYN mShIQ824zNcrGY1UzK5qWDeno.JvHzgrF5EQRuhlKWFhXNKxvIRhKHB8gh74 6m9cFbbpwFGLxMAEzk1mNX2hM7LlBbkPrz+KnyZ3ucmIJ8vFk8JKXD4ir7AC CDF6UeLMPo55eIlZDqWMe2zs87r9n8hsf1HY7bISveVaTtb9GlP2xJJnvi2Q kZVwRgJ4o8emiNWxrUQjWLZcqH8lFNTRoVHI7K.4kVQIVpH2wHL1FI410sWM bcqoLmtvkYghR+zonDmpHjMRBQbpoDxlX.576colhsPSNVRSsTRtyZR+AVrR RXmIoXKc4b35F4ymoD5BKI0MOM5ugRmk1C -----------end_max5_patcher-----------

Hi,

You need to connect the 2nd outlet of the umenu to [prepend set], not the first one.

hey charles thanks a lot for your fast reply just realised that and when highlighting the output for the unmenu in the clue window it stated that on the output had connected originally this was for numbers instead of text cheers

@Ch: I think you’re right here, but what do you make out of the groove~ reference page ?

It seems to contradict itself a little; the short description after the set message states that the behavioral flag should be an int (0 or 1) whereas the longer description after that backups what you say here; the second parameter should be a symbol which switches the buffer~ object.

Or am I misinterpreting the reference page here?

The short description in the reference is an error. I’ve seen it in more places, copy-pasted and then forgotten to update. Typically post midnight work I suppose.
