Quote - Do you guys think this is long enough for Beta on Matmatic? Most people seem to think its working right, but I haven't seen anybody else post an original Matmatic material. So as far as I know, everybody is just using my demos. Which concerns me because I tend not to use certain nodes, and they could be buggy. Opinions?

I've read this thread a few times now - am finally using Parmatic... how cool is THIS!! - and I don't think anyone has answered your question on the Beta for Matmatic. I use it every day and besides the missing Texture Quality parameter, the thing works a treat: so, if you want to start marketing, I'll be first in the queue. I'll be the first to admit that I'm not a power-user, but consistency counts for something, doesn't it? I really am using it daily and thanks to your clear instructions can now even call .py files from within the scripts. This is a totally amazing tool: talk about extending the power of Python! Personally, I don't see a need for a GUI for it, but hey, if that's what they're clamoring for... whatever. I find it quicker and easier to debug without a GUI to insulate (hide) the source.

Okay: question. I hope you haven't already answered this somewhere else... is there some way to designate which PM: items show up in which order on the parameter dials window? Or, is that going to be in version .3?

Oh, and why am I not posting my code? Because it is the most unclever, unimaginative, uninspired Python code ever written. You've seen my stuff. Boring! I've finally gotten away from the naming-every-node-so-I-can-place-it lunacy... I name and place those nodes I want the user to see and manipulate (stuff they can't affect with parameter dials, like colours) and all the rest is just kinda strung out like your stuff is. So, the code is more readable, but heck, it's still boring.
It'll be a while before I start to synthesize in Python.
