yep, that helped, thanks.
here is a version of the resulting patch:
http://barely.a.live.fm/pd/stff/spatzi_4delay.tgz
it uses the grid object to define the position.
and you need this here as well, sorta compatibiltyobject to max: scale
like <scale from-min from-max to-min to-max>

in case anyone's interested
Shahrokh Yadegari about Re: [PD] cartopol / Yesterday
|Hi,
|
|The syntax of expr is very close to that of the C language. The upchar '^'
|for expr does not mean to the power of, it is the 'exclusive or' operator.
|
|You can use the following expressions to translate from rectangular
|to polar coordinates:
|
|x: $f1
|y: $f2
|magnitude: expr sqrt($f1*$f1+$f2*$f2)
|phase: expr atan2($f2, $f1)
|(Replace $f to $v, if you are using expr~ for signals)
|
|atan2() works better than atan() because if you use atan($f2/$f1) you have
|to do some checking for the case of $f1==0 and figure out the correct
|phase based on the signs of $f1 and $f2. Also make sure that the y value
|($f2) is passed to the expr object prior to the x value ($f1), otherwise
|you will not get the correct result.
|
|Hope this helps,
|Shahrokh.
