A box on reference mode returns its own internal reference . Applying this mode to a function, a factory box, a patch or a maquette allows to return the generic function, the class or the program it refers to.
To set a box on "reference" mode, select it, press b
and click three times on the upper left cross. A small downward arrow icon appears.
This mode is therefore dedicated to specific tasks : on "reference" mode, a patch box or a maquette box returns its reference to a function, in order to be manipulated at runtime.
The "reference" mode is used for adding a TemporalBox in a maquette via the add-box-to-maquette function.
