Hmm, well, the way Pd gets it is looking in the binbuf. But perhaps you need to look in the binbuf for the object you're looking at, not that of the containing canvas, no? Or, on the other hand. perhaps you're trying to get the name of the abstraction the object is part of?
hmm, i think this is just a problem with the code i mentioned: i pointed hc to the [iemguts/saveargs] object, to look how to get the classname of _a_ class. the sole purpose of this object ([saveargs]) is to get (and set) the name (and arguments) of the abstraction it is living in.
obviously this is _not exactly_ what hc is looking for, it is only something similar. copy-pasting will therefore not work, only reading and understanding :-)
