Tim, am I correct in assuming that when you mean e.g. [A B C] D E [F G] H
where [] indicates the grouping, then A, C, F, G will have the GROUP hint
bit set ? The text is a litte ambiguous here, it could be interpreted
as if A, D, F, H would be marked, and this will not work in all cases. A more general way would be structured names, e.g.
/Filter 1/frequency
/Filter 1/gain
/Filter 1/Q
An intelligent host would take the names apart, and create a group 'Filter 1'
with three elements. This is close to OSC of course, and generalises to more
levels of groupting.
yes, without a distinct group ID or proper hierarchical scheme like
the one you describe here there'll always be a lot of setups that
can't be expressed (RDF, is that you knocking?) -- but this will do
for the simpler cases of breaking up a line of GUI controls in the
meantime.
