use Clipboard Patches for quick access to frequently used Patchlets

more and more often you'll realize being busy doing the same clicks again and again:

    • configure an IOBox to make it look the way you prefer.
    • typing Xpath (XML) or RegExpr (String) expressions you know you did before.
    • configuring a Renderer (EX9) depthbuffer on, antialising on

surely you are familiar with this.

simple make a patch which keeps the naming conventions of modules and save it into your modules folder.
of course best solution is having a dedicated Clipboard folder.
fill this patch with your custom configured nodes an/or patchlets.


Having the right name it will show up right next to its related node in the nodelist.
e.g.
IOBox (String Clipboard).v4p
IOBox (String)

now you have quick access to an archive of your favourite Patchlets^
