waveform~ link outlet problem

Hi.

I'm experiencing a problem with waveform~: whenever I recall a prototype, the link outlet stops sending data.

To reproduce the problem, do the following:
- open the waveform~ help file, go to the "multi-channel" subpatch.
- unlock, recall the "M4L.black" prototype for the upper waveform~.
- click "name stereowave 1" to re-set the buffer.
- interact with the mouse with the upper waveform~: nothing happens in the lower one

... of course I could be doing something wrong - I'm not a waveform~ guru ;)

cheers

M4L.black prototype set the outmode attribute to 0. If you put it back to the default value (4), the link works back again.

Thank you Emmanuel.

Maybe this should be more clearly documented - I quote from the doc for outmode: "Only the selection start and end (outlets 3 and 4) are affected."
This is why I didn't try fiddling with it...
