input-output user actor triggers at entering scene.

[Gaspar]

Hi.

Using the "well known" user actor of just one input and one output I've noticed that it sends out a trigger whenever I enter the scene.
I guess this is probably not meant to be this way.

additional info. It also triggers having just an "user output" inside the "user actor". So its the "user output" who triggers everytime you enter a scene.

 What data type do you have the output set to?

It'll definitely trigger if you set the User Output actor inside the User Actor to initialize as blank or at a certain value (depending on data type), but in that case it's just pushing the data that you told it to initialize with.

@gaspar
are any of the inputs initialised? Either inside the User Actor, or on the outside?

Thanks for coming back to me...

The I/O user actor was basically meant to send triggers, but not necessarily when entering the scene.

The input and outputs were not initialised, although I tried to initialise them to zero after seeing this weird behaviour.

From your answers I assume it does not happen on your system.

I even created a blank patch from scratch with a first blank scene and a second scene with only the I/O user actor and a trigger value to check if it is triggered when entering the scene... and YES IT IS.

And this happens also on my second installation of ISADORA on the same computer but DUAL BOOT for just gigs... no internet, no antivirus, etc.

@gaspar

with this setup, i get the same results as you, even with nothing initialised, the trigger is sent when entering the scene

OK, I have found the cause here. You are passing a value thru the user actor. It assumes there is some processing internally so the value is processed. 

If you instead turn the input and outputs to trigger types the trigger is not passed.
