The messages like "onset", "tail" and "score2roll" change musical contents without "bang message"

Dear developers,

The messages like "onset", "tail" and "score2roll" change musical contents without "bang message".

For example, when sending the following message into [bach.roll]

Code: Select all

select chord 1 2, onset = onset + 3, tail = tail - 3 - 40

the second chord in the first voice is changed, but [bach.roll] does not send "bang" message from the rightmost outlet.
However, it sends a "bang" message from the rightmost outlet when pressing "CMD + z" to execute an "undo".

How can I get "bang" or any message which tells that any modifications are performed by the "onset" and "tail" messages above?


The same occurs also when sending "score2roll" from [bach.score] to [bach.roll]

Code: Select all

score2roll

How can I get "bang" or any message which tells that "score2roll" finished the job?


Thanks in advance!

Two ways:
1. A trigger suffices, you send the message first, then a bang. Nothing is deferred, so you are good.
2. There should be (but I am away from keyboard so I may be wrong) an attribute telling to send the bang on messages. Can you look for "sendbang" or something like this among the attributes?

Thank you for your answer.
I usually use the first way, and it is a bit confusing.
I could not find "sendbang" attribute.

Thanks!

I do not see why the first way should be confusing, if anything to me it is the cleanest Max way.
The attribute is called @notifymessages

Hope this helps.

With the second way, I see the process more easily. Haha!
