[PD] integer values

[João Pais]

Hi,

in pd-0.43.0-devel-20100219 I get the following result from the [struct  
$0-data-s float x float y array $0-array-s $0-element] on the before named  
[sliders] abstraction, when I click on the data array:

print: click

(pointer)

0

Which comes out only at the first click, so it isn't perfect (maybe  
coupled with a [del 150] or something). true, using scalars you get a  
"change" flag each time a value changes, that's more elaborate.
another option would be to use one struct per slider - not really that  
hard to program anyway, they can even be created dynamically if you need  
multisliders with different sliders inside. (Volker, if you're not in a  
hurry and this interests you, I could make an example around the end of  
the week)

The good thing about data structures is that you can make a nice gui with  
it (in case that matters).

João
