I think there are many places that I can use IML to remove things that I don't need in performance..... that's a great approach!
Only problem so far--when I want to quickly page forward or back, I lose about 1/2 the button presses. Senso's solution seems to be about the same CPU (0.12) but it doesn't lose button presses.
But I'm wondering--will all the clocks run simultaneously, if I have a bunch of these, causing spikes like you mention? I don't know how to test this, actually!
thanks!

P.S. The combo used to be named "wurlitzer", but it was fed by a buss that is gone now--- you can feel free to change it to something more helpful than "W"! Or eliminate the title altogether

http://www.sensomusic.com/forums/upload ... lowCpu.pat
here from 2 percent to 0.25 simple IML and "patch" active example.
I tried to delete/recreate all wires inside, but finally got better results this way.
in fact the list is huge and represent a very big array, that's what is cpu consumming.
the simple iml exemple create the link from comma to mondocombo, wait a bit, and delete the wire.
then mondo combo is active only a short pulse as you clic (.with a tiny delay to avid problems , a wait one was enough for select value to pass, not text)
,a different solution, but as i doubt you clic constantly every 100ms, think may be better than clock (but might results in spikes if you will use 24, so offseted clocks might be better with high nb of box, have to try..)
seems to work not bad here, 0.25 cpu average. (im on save battery option, on good dual core should be around 0.10 percent)
on first open list don't update correctly , but as soon as you press prev or next, it's ok, then closing/reopening with no pb
btween have to adapt it with what ethnix has done, just rename correctly in "send usine messag" should do the job.

And a great cpu solution as well!
I can't wait to update my wkp. I use about 1.2% on each box, and there are 24 in my setup!
Thanks, Senso!

So, the template might be:
CODE:
Combo Box Mod 2* // file name ext ('wav', 'usr', etc...)1 // none=0,in=1,out=23 // term flowtype (ftNone=0,ftPCM=1,ftInternText=2,ftData=3,ftMIDI=4,ftArray=5,ftUser=6,ftEvtText=7,ftPointer=8,ftIntern=9,ftOther=maxInt)8 // term display flow type (dftText=0,dftgain=1,dftDir=2,dftSwitch=3,dftButton=4,dFtInt=5,dftFloat=6,dftColor=7,dftListBox=8,dftArray=9,dftIpAddress=10,dftSmpte=11,dftFileName=12,dftMidiNote=13)* // terminal name can be '*' or "any string"SET_TARGET_PATCH SENDER_PATCHCREATE_MODULE mondoComboMod 6 MOUSE_X MOUSE_Y "f:TempaudioHostUsineadd onsothersmondoComboMod.pat"CREATE_LINK mondoComboMod text SRC_MODULE SRC_TERM_NUMSET_COMMATEXT mondoComboMod list SRC_COMMATEXTSET_VALUE mondoComboMod text SRC_VALUERENAME_MODULE mondoComboMod SRC_TERM_NAMESET_TARGET_PATCH SRC_TERM_NAMESET_STRING_VALUE comboin caption SRC_TERM_NAME
Be careful:
To name the combobox "comboin", and to wire the "textfield" module to tje outlet "SELECTION" of the subpatch mondoCombo.
To save the slightly modified patch as mondoComboMod in order to get the template to work .
And to set the good path to the patch (if you dont save it in your template folder. Look up for the Senso tip)
EDIT: You always have to double click on the combobox first....Strange:(

Adding: SET_COMMATEXT mondoComboExample list SRC_COMMATEXT at the end of the IML message will work, you can set automatically the text!
Great, but strangely, you've got to open the combobox i've added, to populate your patch....

I know this IML message, but using SET_COMMATEXT mondoComboExample comma SRC_COMMATEXT, where comma is a "data in" module (caption=comma) replacing the "text" module in the woddslanding patch, doesn't seem to work....Don't know why

also, if you locate the patch in the template folder you don't have to specify the path
"f:TempaudioHostUsineadd onsothersmondoComboExample.pat" and mondoComboExample.pat is enough

At least, this template is ok for the moment:
Combo Box Mod
* // file name ext ('wav', 'usr', etc...)
1 // none=0,in=1,out=2
3 // term flowtype (ftNone=0,ftPCM=1,ftInternText=2,ftData=3,ftMIDI=4,ftArray=5,ftUser=6,ftEvtText=7,ftPointer=8,ftIntern=9,ftOther=maxInt)
8 // term display flow type (dftText=0,dftgain=1,dftDir=2,dftSwitch=3,dftButton=4,dFtInt=5,dftFloat=6,dftColor=7,dftListBox=8,dftArray=9,dftIpAddress=10,dftSmpte=11,dftFileName=12,dftMidiNote=13)
* // terminal name can be '*' or "any string"
SET_TARGET_PATCH SENDER_PATCH
CREATE_MODULE mondoComboExample 6 MOUSE_X MOUSE_Y "f:TempaudioHostUsineadd onsothersmondoComboExample.pat"
CREATE_LINK mondoComboExample text SRC_MODULE SRC_TERM_NUM

the patch is calculated every 100 ms
the cpu load is 0.03% ...

i was wondering if maybe someone worked on reverse concept im also after, take several caption in and output a comma text?

Maybe it could be improved by using the IML to set the texts? At least it would be simpler to edit without all the wiring. A negative side effect might be an increased load when changing pages. Mind you, I'm far from being an expert on IML, but I'm fairly sure it's doable...

This is my solution to the double-click problem with V5 comboboxes. And the layout problems from V4 comboboxes.
It lays your items out in 4 columns of 8 rows, with as many pages as needed to list all the items. When you select an item, it closes, but you can also put it in 'browse' mode, which keeps it open after a selection, so you can try out multiple options before closing it.
It uses a good bit of CPU, unfortunately.
Hope someone can use it. I've found it indispensable for selecting presets from VSTs.
