I noticed that in the latest pd-extended on ubuntu, the arrow doesn't change direction when you mouse over a GUI object that is editable. Why so? I found it useful..<br><br>-rich<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Jun 4, 2008 at 3:59 AM, Hans-Christoph Steiner <<a href="mailto:hans@eds.org">hans@eds.org</a>> wrote:<br>

For this release, there has been a lot of work in making the GUI and<br>
user experience much more fluid and easy. There is a new visual look<br>
that was designed to make patches more readable. Additionally, lots<br>
of things have been tweaked to make Pd behave more like a normal app.<br>
There has already been a lot of testing on these builds, so it is<br>
getting quite close to a final version. (Debian/PowerPC is missing<br>
now but will come later)<br>

Application Data/Pd<br>
<br>
- lots of standard key bindings added:<br>
Enter/Return for OK<br>
Escape for Cancel<br>

<br>

<br>
- cut/copy/paste now work directly into text boxes on all platforms<br>
<br>

<br>
KNOWN BUGS<br>
<br>
- check <a href="http://puredata.info/dev/bugtracker" target="_blank">http://puredata.info/dev/bugtracker</a> before reporting bugs<br>
<br>
- Escape, Enter, and Ctrl/Cmd-W don't close the Path and Startup<br>
preferences<br>
<br>
- pdp_opengl is alpha and will definitely crash Pd<br>
<br>
- loading pdp_opengl will crash Pd if X11 is not open before trying<br>
to load it<br>
