mappers clip/reject modes

[reno-]

• be able to choose "clip" mode (current) or "split/reject" mode in mappers
• in clip mode when an input is out of bounds it is clipped either to the highest or lowest value
• in split/reject mode, when an input is out of bounds it is not passed on.

Not easy to implement without breaking a lot of existing mappings. In order to keep existing events compatible, the only solution I see is to add the parameter "reject" or "scale reject" to the mapping param list, such that if there is no value for it in the list, "reject" will be automatically "off" and the clip mode will be "clip" as it is now. This will also be simpler to put into the editor since we won't have to worry about "default".

In the long term, in tapemovie2, I think we should go to the "clip mode" logic with maybe a symbol saying "clip" or "reject", but for tapemovie1, I would prefer to go with the less intrusive solution. Is that ok with you?

Merry Christmas!
added: clipmode param within multimap and multimapsend, multimap.edit and multimapsendu.edit
options are (for the moment) clip and reject.
Old event messages will automatically be in "clip".
I tested, but should test yourself to be sure.

Excellent !!
Juste to notify that this report was just an imPort from issues of old-tapemovie.org tracker !!

But I agree, we have to focus on span and tapemovie 2 For development!!
