im guessing i need to use a loadbang to make the images load when i launch the patch, but how to i go about specifying the location of the image/saving them within the patch/"self containing" them? so it all opens from scratch and i dont have to find them everytime i open it.

i now this is simple but i could do with reading it in laymans terms lol

cheers

to load images i use messages such as [open pic1.jpg( [open pic2.jpg(
into [pix_image] or [open images/pic1.jpg( to change images on the fly
or you can use [pix_image images/pic1.jpg] to start with that picture.

I'm new to Pd, and I'm not sure if this is the correct way to do it, but I used LOADBANG with SEND and RECEIVE objects, and well, it works more than once
(If someone has a better or correct method, please share, thank you).

On another note, the message to "auto $1" play the clip (with toggle box checked) works when first checked, but then upon un-checking it and re-checking it, does not "auto play" unless I exit Pd and then restart. Has anyone else the same issue?

PS: I was about to post on here a looping issue I received while trying to use LOADBANG and TRIGGER (logic error on my part) because after I corrected the patch (stopped the logic from looping), for some strange reason Pd kept on re-loading my clip endlessly (even renamed patch, quit Pd, etc. - did not restart PC however), so I wanted to know if indeed there was configuration file(?) that could be cleared if indeed this happens again (hopefull I'm clear)?

Thanx in advance.
