Behaviour of elev++

Hello T.

I’m having an issue with the elev++ position message. When controlling a source with this message, the resulting movement is inverted (When I go up, it goes down). Also it seems to behave strangely when reaching the ±90° position: for example, when I reach the +90° position and I start to move down, the source goes down … in the other direction.

I attached a patch to reproduce the behaviour.
Can you confirm it?

My config:
Max 7.1.0
Spat 4.8
OSX 10.10.5

Best regards,
Philippe.

Hi Philippe,

I confirm there is a bug. This will be fix for the next release.

Thanks.

Hello T.

It seems the spat.oper_ object is still concerned by this issue in the latest Spat~ release (4.9.1)
Please, check the attached patch for confirmation.

Thanks,
Philippe.
