Instructions for converting Text objects [beta1 -> beta2]
There has been some changes to MacCsound's file format in
beta2. If you have any .csd files that you created in beta1 and they
contain Text i/o objects
you need to follow the instructions below to convert them
+ Duplicate file [beta1 will not be able to read converted file!]
+ Open the duplicate file in a text editor.
+ For all 'ioText' objects, add:
{0, 0, 0} {65535, 65535, 65535} nobackground noborder
before the last parameter [text/channelname].
Example
ioText {45, 16} {156, 28} label "Futura" 12 Minimum Density [sec]
should be changed to:
ioText {45, 16} {156, 28} label "Futura" 12 {0, 0, 0} {65535, 65535, 65535} nobackground noborder Minimum Density [sec]
+ For all 'ioColorText' objects:
1) change the name to 'ioText'
2) add 'background' before the 'border' parameter
Example
ioColorText {296, 92} {46, 31} orc "Skia" 16 {0, 0, 0} {53739, 57869, 65535} border Pitch
should be changed to:
ioText {296, 92} {46, 31} orc "Skia" 16 {0, 0, 0} {53739, 57869, 65535} background border Pitch
+ that's it!
