Typing into a Max Device - possible?

Post by gavspav_2 » Mon Oct 05, 2009 11:46 am

Say I want to give users the option to change the address for a UDPsend object within my Max device.

Is it possible to somehow type a value into the Max Device from Live and encorporate it into a message which I can relay to the UDP send object?

Or would the only way to open up the device in M4L and change the port there?

Thanks,

Have a look at the inspector of the textedit object

Ah thanks - I assumed the textedit object wouldn't work inside the Live Gui.

Happily I was wrong :o
