Based on previous 256Pm this is a more general patch working as a general combobox.

inertia/absolute/page type scrolling. can assign global color sheme or per cell and eventually rename item.
can change matrix size.

mm normally, just feed the commain with your comma or edit the one inside the patch? is it that hard

?

i see what you mean, it can't be conected straight out of pgm like a regular combobox, in fact it would need kind of template to auto_assign commatext. that's what usine does when you try to wire something (ie combobox) out of lists like program. it creates a link from program to nb, but the wire contain only a float of selection. the commatext is transfered once via IML.

here need to manually feed the comma, and indeed a temp combo is necesary for such case (hoever don't need to feedback text)

i will try to have a look to make a template for vst, but im a total noob in templates.

??strange here it updates, (note it must have changed) gonna check it back

edit: checked, mmm here it updates. if i open the patch, feed with a new comma and open the combobox, i can see the new comma?

here how i test:
i add a vsti in a patch
create a combo box/expand it
add your patch as sub patch , extract the sub-patch mx inside ( don't know why it's in a sub-patch )
link the outlet comma text of my combo box to the inlet list comma in of your sub-patch
nothing happen
i've tried to use the next/previous of my combo box to try to refresh too

oh yes i wrongly exported in subpatch, i still got pbs to export sorry
for the comma thing
mmm it looks like the comboboxes don't transmit the commatext sometimes. when i pick a combobox out of vst , i see it's full,
then when connecting commaout to my patch the wire shows nothing...strange
think got to report to senso, cause i feel the problems comes from usine combobox.

I just downloaded this, and have tried it out in place of my mondoCombo. It's working really great. One request though:

I would like to switch the X and Y axes, because I find it much nicer to organize my patches in columns, like a newspaper. It's so much easier to read down a column of boxes, than rows. I have

I imagine I could make this work, and in fact I may try tonight.... but I'm guessing you could maybe do it in a couple of minutes. It's been a long time since I scripted anything serious, and I feel super rusty
