Script variables and the preset manager

[bsork]

Hi Olivier,

I can't just figure out what is happening to variables in a script when storing and recalling a patch using the preset manager. I've been trying to loop through the presets to put the values from a single array module into arrays within a script as a sort of update procedure.

sorry,
internal script data's aren't stored in the preset manager.
Only inlet, outlet values.

use an external Array module to store data's.

Oh, thanks for the question and the answer, guys!

I thought that that would be the case. I guess it wouldn't make much sense trying to store them like the other data, especially since the scripts are being compiled whenever they're loaded. Doable I suppose, but probably a mess to program...

Well, it was just an idea for an improved XY-morph patch. I have other ideas though.

a nightmare do you mean?

But I can add some 'file' functions in the script to store your data's your self in a separate file:
like

openfile('data.dat');
writeInfile(data1)
...
closefile;

but later, it's not a priority?

"Nightmare" is a better word, yes. Or "hell", maybe?

And you're very right in that it's not a priority!
