The secret is that I forgot to check in the file, sorry... the bonus
is I added another example, you can disable the resizing of your patch:

In my opinion, this is not _stupid_ GUI tricks at all...
Being asked on the differences between Pd and Max/MSP, how many
times have I answered starting with "The GUI in pd isn't really as
cool and smart as it is in Max/MSP but the DSP capabilities are in the
end very similar".My answer to the lack of GUI elegance is very often a salad of overlaying [cnv]'s to make patches look more attractive and thus
very often more readable.This kind of effort is not stupid, it is great GUI improvement
in my opinion.++

Another off-thread thing : I'm really looking forward to the day pd will not suffer that much from its GUI implementation : simple
slider or table visualization/monitoring sometimes being the main
reason for a ultra complex DSP patch to bo so heavy on the computer/ resources ! (-:Hans-Christoph Steiner a ?crit :
Ok, all this Tcl/Tk has started to rot my brain, so here are some stupid GUI tricks:

- change patch background colors in a patch!
- make your patches transparent!
- use lots of Tcl/Tk config options!
Works on my machine :D and hopefully tomorrow's auto-builds...
