Hi<br>
<br>
I am giving a very short PD workshop soon and I want to give students a folder with some ready made examples. Within that folder there is a small library with some abstractions the examples use. Each abstraction has its own help file next to it. However right click > help on the abstraction objects of the examples does not open the help files because PD cannot find them. It only works if the library is located in the extra folder. This I want to avoid if possible.<br>
<br>
I have tried to add the path of my library with abstractions in the preferences but this does not work. Is there any other simple way to achieve this?<br>
<br>
thanks<br>
<br>
