ah thats helpful thank you!
it might be too much but how about turning on/off gui-plugins directly from a patch by sending messages to pd?
also i did something like:
proc RandomInteger1 {max} { return [expr {int(rand()*$max) + 1}] }
to randomize font size etc. right now when i open my patch i have to click on and off the patch to refresh.... is there just a refresh pd command i can send so i count refresh with a metro for example to create little animated randomized object boxes?
i thought you could send a [;pd refresh{ or something like that but i cant find it. am i crazy?

One thing I want to add is a 'pd-gui' receive for sending messages to the GUI. This would be analogous to the 'pd' receive, i.e. [;pd dsp 1( But that's just an idea at this point.
For your case, I think you want to bind to the <<Loaded>> event to refresh once the patch is finished loading. Then also, you could bind to a FocusIn event to make something happen whenever the window gets focus. There are other events you can bind to that will be useful to you: http://www.tcl.tk/man/tcl8.5/TkCmd/bind.htm

You need to specify the point or pixel size as part of the font: $tkcanvas itemconfigure text -fill red -font {Helvetica 16} ;# points $tkcanvas itemconfigure text -fill red -font {Helvetica -16} ;# negative is pixels
You can also create a 'font' to have that setting in one spot: http://www.tcl.tk/man/tcl8.5/TkCmd/font.htm

i finally have a chance to play around with the gui-plugin stuff. using "tkcanvas itemconfigure" im playing around with changing the look of my patches in performance mode. question: is there a list / documentation of the gui elements? other than reading over the pd-gui tcl code?
without knowing much i was doing things like:
$tkcanvas itemconfigure text -fill red -font Helvetica -size 16
but -size gives me error
so maybe there is something more other than a trial and error approach or use of css knowledge which obviously does not completely translate.
