Re: [PD-dev] is namecanvas obsolete or not?

Hallo, Krzysztof Czaja hat gesagt: // Krzysztof Czaja wrote:

perhaps, sending messages to [pd $0-localtest] subpatch inside of the [test] abstraction would be a bit cleaner?

I guess, I'd second this. If I use abstractions in a patch, then I see these as being something rather static. They reside in the filesystem and a change of one abstraction should mean a change in all other instances, too. Subpatches however, especially those names with $0, are all through Pd used as areas to paint to, e.g. in graph structures. So they are meant to change their structure. And there are no abstractions named "$0-abs.pd".

But I admit, that's just my way of thinking in Pd.
