I'm trying to get around some of the clunkiness in using Max's built in objects to read in MIDI files (detonate, filein, seq, etc...).  Specifically, I'd like an easier way to read the actual tick counts for the delta time and duration times for each note (rather than msec which detonate outputs), as well as the tempo.  

I started to explore using some existing Javascript libraries to do this, but sadly, my Javascript skills are not great, especially in Max.  V8, Node.js, etc... are all pretty new for me.  I came across this, 

https://cycling74.com/projects/midi-parsing-using-javascript-in-max

 , which looked promising, but no accompanying help file to walk through its usage.

I also see midi-parser-js as a Node NPM project which looks even better, and I can load it into a node.script object in Max, but then don't know how to use it from there:  

https://www.npmjs.com/package/midi-parser-js

There's also midi-file, another NPM project, but again, just don't know what to do once loaded

So, I'm a little confused here. I'm currently bulding a Max for Live device but I was building it in normal Max as a project until recently. Then I had to export it as a amxd because I started working with live.object stuff. 

Well, the problem that now has occured is, that I don't really understand where Max/Live saves my subpatchers and scritps and stuff. 

The problem is that I have a JS file that includes another JS file (where a class is located) and I don't know how to access these files now. The inspector only tells me the blank file name without the path and when I edit the original file (the one I used in the original Max project), obviously nothing changes as this isn't the linked file anymore. 

So, I guess there is surely a best practice for this but I just can't find anything on the web that helps me here. Hope anyone can help me with this.

I'm working on a videogame in the browser and I'm trying to import it in max through jweb.

I'd like to know if the standard DOM API are present in the jweb browser, as like as canvas etc..

Moreover I'd like to know if there's a way to access by jitter to the offscreen buffer used for rendering when the the render mode is 

, in order to apply realtime processing to the jweb rendered image. So i'd like to tapin the buffer before rendering, process the image and tapout the modified image in the buffer to be rendered.

Am I doing something wrong or is this a bug? If I call my setstep() function in the patch below Max crashes. Code is below I am calling the setvalue method on the MaxobjListener and it works the first time I press the message button to trigger it in the patch, but then it crashes Max if I press it again once or twice.

var obj;
var objL;



function loadbang(){
gc();
obj = this.patcher.getnamed("pitchslider");
objL = new MaxobjListener(obj, valuechanged);
	}

function bang(){
gc();
obj = this.patcher.getnamed("pitchslider");
objL = new MaxobjListener(obj, valuechanged);


	}
	
	
function valuechanged(data) {
    post("value changed!\n");
    if (data.attrname) {
        post("attrname: " + data.attrname + "\n");
    }
    post("new value: " + data.value + "\n");

	//post(JSON.stringify(data.maxobject))
}

function setstep(){
 

	objL.setvalue([45,16,45,1,12,0,16,59,80,24,24,64,101,4,34,36]);
	
	
}

I'm trying to write a js object that will return the scroll offset of a patch when banged. It seems pretty straight forward to use the scrolloffset(array,get) method to return these values, but I am receiving an error: ReferenceError: get is not defined, line 8

I've looked in the reference and it was not entirely clear on this method.

Any help would be great. My code is listed below.

inlets= 1;
outlets= 2;

p= this.patcher;
var offset;

function bang()
{
    p.scrolloffset(offset, get);
    outlet(0,offset[0]);
    outlet(1,offset[1]);
}

scrolloffsetarrayget-problem

Scrolloffset is a property of the patcher object rather than a function. Try replacing the first line in your "bang" function with the line below and it shouldn't cause an error.

Thanks for your help, although it still is not outputting the scroll offset of the window... and I'm not sure why.  Here is the current code.  Any thoughts?

inlets= 1;
outlets= 2;

p= this.patcher;
var offset;

function bang()
{
    offset = this.patcher.scrolloffset;
    outlet(0,offset[0]);
    outlet(1,offset[1]);

}

The scrolloffset is what we want, but it is currently not working.  Apparently a lot of the JS stuff needs to be re-written and Cycling 74 hasn't gotten around to it.  I alerted them of the problem so hopefully it will be fixed soon.

I too am waiting on these fixes to finish up a program I've been working on it.

I'm on Max6.0.7 and I'm also getting 0 and 1 on the scrollbaroffset property. It seems to be broken still. Anybody found a workaround to get scroll position on a patcher (or bpatcher)?


My problem was the opposite,
I found this solution, accessing to the wind properties:

function bang()
{
    this.patcher.wind.scrollto (X, Y);
}

In a JS script, you can get all selected tracks by iterating over tracks and checking 

, which works if someone has shift+clicked multiple tracks directly. But I don't see any similar property for clips.

In session view you can shift+click multiple clips, and in arrangement view you can click and drag a timeline selection across multiple tracks (thereby selecting multiple clips), but I can't find any way to get access this info, and actually these actions only set 

 on the first track selected this way. Even being able to get the timeline selection range would be useful, but I don't think this is possible either.

Is there maybe a way to use observers to track multiple selected clips? Any other ideas?
