<BLOCKQUOTE TYPE=CITE style="BORDER-LEFT: #0000ff 2px solid; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0px; PADDING-LEFT: 5px">when you run pd, you can send various parameters to it to tell it how to<BR>
behave. these are called command line arguments or parameters. type in<BR>
'pd -help' in the command prompt to see a list.</BLOCKQUOTE><BR>
<BR>
I am very new with prompt command, so I thank you again for your explanation.<BR>
So I understand that I can type in the windows prompt ("start" windows menu c:\pd\pd -help)<BR>
to get a list. But when I do this I the pd folder open, only this.<BR>
<BR>

<BLOCKQUOTE TYPE=CITE style="BORDER-LEFT: #0000ff 2px solid; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0px; PADDING-LEFT: 5px">in order to tell pd to use the zexy library, use the '-lib' command, <BR>
</BLOCKQUOTE><BR>
so do I have to use the -lib command from the windows prompt ("start" windows menu)<BR>
<BR>
or put <BR>
<BLOCKQUOTE TYPE=CITE style="BORDER-LEFT: #0000ff 2px solid; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0px; PADDING-LEFT: 5px">all arguments in a batch file (a text file with the extension .bat) and run<BR>
that. there are plenty of examples of peoples' command line argument<BR>
settings on their respective webpages.<BR>
<BR>
firstly - I'm not sure it's a good idea to run pd from within 'program<BR>
files', I know there was an issue with spaces in the folder names a while<BR>
ago, not completely sure. best be safe and move whole thing to c:\pd (!)<BR>
then run:<BR>
</BLOCKQUOTE><BR>
<BR>
ok, I put pd in this place<BR>
<BR>

</BLOCKQUOTE><BR>
<BR>
same problem, when I type c:\pd\zexy -lib zexy from the windows start menu it only open the zexy folder<BR>
<BR>
<BLOCKQUOTE TYPE=CITE style="BORDER-LEFT: #0000ff 2px solid; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0px; PADDING-LEFT: 5px">this should enable zexy objects to load. if you want the help patches to<BR>
appear when you right click on them and press help, I managed this by<BR>
putting the help patches in doc\5.reference\zexy\ but I'm not too sure on<BR>
the rules of how it finds these.<BR>
<BR>
good luck<BR>
