String equivalent for BuildSpreads module

I’ve been trying to convert the BuildSpread module by Woei so the same can be done with Strings, but have failed miserably.

The idea is to create a playlist of file names, could someone give me some pointers?

A fresh head on the patch and I’ve sorted it.

playlist_buildspread.v4p (11.2 kB)

here it is. also an improved buildspread module for values… you need beta 18 or higher…

build spread string.zip (7.3 kB)

slimmed string version of buildspread, just for the sake of completeness. doesn’t make use of the default string for deletion.

but eles module is much fancier anyways. isn’t this functionality worth a node or a plugin? ;)

BuildSpread (String).v4p (10.0 kB)
