Hi do all SM-Users
First a few words to my own: I am playing around with music software now for about a year or so. I am the proud owner of Propellerheads Reason and Ableton Live. But I am only a newbie in making music. I read a few books about Synthesizers. Since half a year I also own Reaktor but never got really warm with it. Then last week I found SM became an Early Adopter and here I am 🙂
At the moment I am playing around with the tutorials and documents of the docs section.
BTW: why is it not possible to change the order (priority) of links on the output side of a component?
Great product and great forum, greetings from Austria

Hi, welcome to the forum hpb12 🙂
BTW: why is it not possible to change the order (priority) of links on the output side of a component?
You do this within the actual module by placing the output connections in a vertical order, so the first output is the one at the top and the second the one directly below that ect and the same applys for the inputs. This will apply the ordering of the links on the main module. Hope this helps.

Thanks Tom7777 for your answers. Of course it helps but it is not the answer to what I was looking for. 😕
I mean if there is a component with one output and to this output I have a few links then it is not possible to change the order of this links as you can if you have a few links to one input (click to the connector).

Ok sorry i read your question the wrong way, well in that case i guess the answer is becuase the feature hasn't (as far as i know) been added. It is designed that way so you can have multiple connections going out of the outputs, if you want to change the ordering just delete the wire and re-connect it to whatever you want.

Thanks again.
>It is designed that way so you can have multiple connections going out of the outputs.
Maybe you can explain this sentence in a little bit more detail 😉
At the moment I do not really understand what that has to do with the order of the links.
Thanks for your help

Well i mean you can have multiple wires going out from the same output. Im guessing when you say links you mean the outputs on the actual module and you are refering to the wires going out of these when you drag the mouse from one of these? It is made this way becuase if when dragging over an output on a module which had multiple outputs if it were the same as with the inputs you would not be able to have multiple wires going out from that output as is would just change the order each time however you can change the ordering on a modules inputs this way. I guess the devs could add the option to change the ordering this way by holding a certain keyboard key and dragging (as far as i know theres currently no such feature) but this has not been added yet.

🙂 Yes we are talking about the same thing.
Look there:
[old link]
Go down the page to "Link Order/Changing the Order"
I mean exactly this feature but for output connectors. If you build GUI's and have overlapping objects then the feature would be fine for output connectors too to change the order.
