After using Purr Data for a couple of days now, I really appreciate it!
E.g. I don't want to miss scaling the surface anymore.

But I still have some questions:

• Is it possible to use pyext in a reliable manner?
• What about [pd~]? I really need that. Will it work in future?

I'm not familiar with pyext. Is it currently maintained and stable in Vanilla?

• What about [pd~]? I really need that. Will it work in future?

[pd~] should work fine in Purr Data.

The last version of pyext is from 2012, but it is stable and works fine with vanilla 0.47-1.

[pd~] doesn't work on both of my windows machines, win7 and win10. I use the Purr Data version for win 64 you linked on the top of this thread

When I start pd~ example on my macbook OSX 10.9.5, I freeze and I need to force quit also.

@xgr try 2.1.2, it should fix the crasher bug you reported.

Hi, i can confirm that pd~ is not working in Win7 64bit. The object box is red.

@jancsika 2.1.2 works and lets me delete the knobs without crashing. (Tested on win10)

(When I correct the path in knopf2.pd from [room_sim_2d ... ] to [iemgui/room_sim_2d ... ] it still doesn't show any knobs. I don't know, if it's because of my code or if there is another error with iemgui. I don't care as I changed the knobs to mknobs anyway, which is an easier and cleaner solution)

I discovered another error while trying 2.1.2.:
Unlike pd, Purr Data opens .pd files in the same instance of Purr Data ( is that intendet?). Opening a .pd file by double click doesn't work, when an instance of Purr Data is running and the path to the .pd file contains a german Umlaut ( ü ). Output in console is: error: <filename> : read failed

Getting [pd~] to work properly by default is going to be tricky. However, if you start it in "-nogui" it should work.

Not sure why it's not compiling on Windows. I'll have a look.

@jancsika Hi, I'm trying to install the 64bit - Ubuntu 16.04 version:

sudo gdebi pd-l2ork-2.1.2-ubuntu_16.04-amd64.deb 
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree

Wrong architecture 'armhf'

@EEight Looks like I screwed up somewhere.

Try the CI build from HEAD:

https://git.purrdata.net/jwilkes/purr-data/builds/3641

Click the "Download" button on that page.

2.2.0 is now available (see links at top).

Most of the bugs mentioned here should now be fixed.

thank you @jancsika !
the pd~ objects is still not loading on windows tho.
best

I tried OSx 64 bit version and shortcuts to put objects, put message ... don't work.

get out edit mode either. but if I exit edit mode with mouse, I can use command+1, command+2 again, but once.

seems when I press command key, purr data move out edit mode without "E" key...

@alfonso.santimone I got it compiling but it's not yet loading the subprocess patch. Once I get it working I'll do a bugfix release.

@emviveros Hm, I'll check it out...

Got the same problem as @emviveros, I can't use any shortcuts. I'm running OSx 10.11 64 bit.
Version 2.1.2 doesn't seem to have this problem, so I am currently using that. btw thank you for the huge work for purr data, hoping that this issue will be solved.

@michaelhnc I've got a bugfix release coming out either today or tomorrow.

2.2.1 Bugfix is now available. See links above.

Unfortunately I still haven't fixed the [pd~] bug yet. That will require a bit more work.

@jancsika Keep up the good work ^^

Thanks for your work!!!

Inspiring!
