Hi everyone!

Im having a problem with [pack] and [unpack] object...

I'm trying pack all the the messages ( fiducial number, x, y, angle, etc...) recived from tuioClient in only one pack [pack $1 $2 $3 $4 $5], but when i unpack dont work.

How can tell me what i am doing wrong? Thanks

$1, $2, etc. in objects are used as arguments for abstractions, which doesn't sound like what you need in this case. So you probably should have [pack f f f f f]. The f means float. Either way, though, it should still work (the messages going in the inlets should replace the arguments anyway). Post the patch so we can have a look at it.

only the first inlet will 'trigger' the pack. so, for every other value, you will need to do it like this:

v
|
[t b f]
| \
[pack f f f ]

or else, just make sure that the left inlet of pack receives its message LAST, so it will trigger all the other values.

I think mod just wants to indicate "any value" that you want to set in a non-left inlet of the pack object.

yes, the 'v' is just an arrow.
