Ah, no, I was suggesting to just let the stopwatch run endlessly, and
the Math.min will cause the output of the javascript to be capped at
60 (or whatever value you enter).
Actually. I've just been playing, and the Math patch has a "Min"
setting. See attached .qtz for what I was thinking of.
Yeah, loops just can't be made, and the Core Image Accumulator is a
special case in the main QC root patch, as far as I can tell.
Thanks for the advice, but I tried this to and it's not possible to
plug a javascript output to the stopwatch StopSignal input. So this
seem to be hard to make this kind of loop and I don't see how the
image accumulator can be used there.

Hi,
Yeah, QC *really* isn't happy about loops in a graph, I believe
the only patch to allow this is the Image Accumulator, that acts
as a basic state machine latch. We've managed to hack up a custom
macro patch that will allow arbitrary connections (including loops
and all manner of other mind bending links) inside it, but it can
be very unstable!
Off the top of my head (i'm sure someone will have a better idea),
you could have the stopwatch feeding a JavaScript with an:
outputs[0] = Math.min(inputs[0], 90);
or
outputs[0] = Math.min(inputs[0], inputs[1]); if you wanted to vary
it.
Hope this helps,
Thomas.

Hi,
I'm making a quartz composition that'll be used in a dashboard
widget(JS).
I have got a few problems with a StopWatch patch. I set the start
signal with an input, and I would like to stop it when the value
reach 90.
So I put a conditional at the output of the StopWatch but I can't
plug the Conditional's output to StopWatch's Stop Signal. The
wire is not accepted(keep white).
Or conditional output and stopwatch input are both boolean values
so I can't understand. It does the same if I use input splitters...

can anybody help me ? I am a quartz new comer.
Thanks.
