hoa.decoder object auto routing signals

Closed this issue · 7 comments

When I route cables from [hoa.decoder~ ] in Max to another object, and then save the patch, close and reopen it, new cables are automatically routed from the first outlet to every object that the other outlets are routed to. I'm not sure if this is an HOA bug or a Max bug.

This is happening in Max 7.0.0 with HoaLibrary 2.0.1
Example
[hoa.decoder~ 3] : __. [sig~]

Save/Close/Reopen

[hoa.decoder~ 3] :>----___. [sig~]

Hi,
Try to add "@AutoConnect 0" (default to 1) to the hoa.2d.decoder~ and tell us if it's better.

With @AutoConnect 0 does fix the problem.

Is this the expected default behavior? Seems sort of confusing to me.

Hi, it's obviously not the correct behavior. @AutoConnect try to do its best to facilitate patching when configuration changed (reconnects patchlines to the hoa.gain~/hoa.2d.meter~/hoa.dac~ when number of channels changed, synchronizes angles and offset between decoder and meter...); But we can't provide all user expectations. If it does not fit your needs, deactivate it !
However, we can always try to improve it, can you send us a screen capture of what you have now and an other with what you would expect ?

If I do this:

I expect it to remain that way. However, if I reopen the patch, it autoconnects to this:

which is not what I expect.

I can can confirm that, we will try to fix this up for the next release.
Thanks.

Hi, this has been fixed in the new release (v2.2).
