The big problem for me is the inlet/outlet size - the precision required isn't something I can comfortably manage on a touchpad. I'm a more than a little overwhelmed with just getting to grips with pure-data and compiling the code - from what I can tell in the source code, the inlet/outlet drawing is totally hard-coded. If someone could tell me whether or not this would be possible to do with the gui plugin system, or if it already exists (based on an earnest search, it does not), I would appreciate it : )<br></div></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>You can increase the font size which will make the boxes bigger. Also, you might like the new inlet/outlet highlighting that's in Pd-extended 0.43 and pd-l2ork. The inlets and outlets are tagged using Tk tags, so you should be able to change their size using the Tk canvas commands 'coords' or 'itemconfigure -width', etc. I've never tried tho.</div><br><blockquote type="cite"><div class="gmail_quote"><div>>As for bugs, please do make bug reports, you can get to the bug report form from the Help menu in Pd.<div>I'm a little confused - I didn't mention anything about bugs.<br></div></div></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>I consider usability problems bugs.</div><div><br></div><div>.hc</div><br><blockquote type="cite"><div class="gmail_quote"><div><div><br>Thanks : )<br><br>S<br><br></div> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;"><div style="word-wrap: break-word;"><div> For example, I think that straight cords are much more readable than bezier curved cords.
