hi.

i assume that Gem loads correctly!

again: did you create the gemwindow? have you turned rendering on?
you have to click on the [create( message (connected to the [gemwin] 
object) in the example-patch. a (black) window should pop up.

then(!) you have to turn on rendering, by sending a "1" to [gemwin] 
(click on the [1( message).
then something should turn up.

if not, i need more information: os (w32-XP, iirc), gem-version (you did 
install the Gem.dll into <path-to-pd>/extra (??)), what gets printed on 
the pd-console!

i don't know anything about your skills in using Pd. parts of what i am 
saying in this email is trivial (if you know it:-)), so it would be good 
to give me an overview.

PS: we usually think it good style to keep questions and answers on the 
pd-list, as it might help other people who have similar problems. please 
_always_ reply to the list (sending your answer to the list will reach 
me and other people AND the archives; sending your answer to me and the 
list will also reach me and other people and the archives; sending your 
answer only to me makes things private to the 2 of us)
