Hi All, if you assign the object count to Min, the patch is
initialised and starts from the Min count rather than 0.
Sorry if that is obvious!
if (Object.count == undefined) {
Object.count = Min;
}

OK, I figured it out. The code below works. Thanks for your help!
Have a nice weekend.
F.
Increasing = inputs[0];
Decreasing = inputs[1];
Reset = inputs[2];
Min = inputs[3];
Max = inputs[4];
if (Object.count == undefined) {
Object.count = 0;
}
if (Increasing) Object.count==Max?_count:Object.count++;
if (Decreasing) Object.count==Min?_count:Object.count--;
if (Reset) Object.count = 0;
outputs[0] = Object.count;

I tried this, but the result reverts to 0 as soon as the increase
signal is set to false. I guess I must "hold" the _count variable
somehow? Thanks for your help.
Increasing = inputs[0];
Decreasing = inputs[1];
Reset = inputs[2];
Min = inputs[3];
Max = inputs[4];
var _count = 0;
if (Increasing) _count==Max?_count:_count++;
if (Decreasing) _count==Min?_count:_count--;
if (Reset) _count = 0;
outputs[0] = _count;

Hey F. You'll need to store an internal variable for the count.
Here is some "pseudocode" to get you started...
var _count = 0;
function (__number Count) main (__boolean Increasing, __boolean
Decreasing, __boolean Reset, __number Min, __number Max) {
var result = new Object();
if (Increasing) _count==Max?_count:_count++;
if (Decreasing) _count==Min?_count:_count--;
result.Count = _count;
return result;
}

Hi list,
is there a patch that works like the Counter but with a minimum/
maximum value? I know I could simply connect the counter to a
Range patch or a restricted Input Splitter, but given that the
maximum count is 5 and the counter has received 100 increase
signals, I don't want to have to send it 95 decrease signals to
get to the point where the count starts decreasing again. I figure
this is feasible with a Javascript patch, but I'm afraid I don't
have any Javascripting skills. The patch also needs a reset signal
input (just like the standard counter).
Your help is much appreciated.
F.
