Yeah, I think there should be more querying capabilities in Pd in general. It allows for more dynamic behavior without resorting to strange hacks.

That's great! I'd actually love to be able to "get" any of the parameters of GUI objects, including size, color, position, etc (basically anything that can currently be set by message). I could make far more dynamic GUIs if I could, e.g., query the background color of a slider, save it, change it temporarily to bright yellow to indicate a different mode, and then change it back to the original color.
Okay, maybe I'll check out your patch here and see if I can figure that out myself.
