Bear with me, because this is kind of roundabout.
The only thing I can think of would be to put in a [textfile] object, and use it to read the patch itself. It will read the pure data patch as though it were a text file, and you could conceivably weed through its output, probably using [route] or [list split] to find your objects... The only other ways I can think of are if the object in question is either a canvas or a scalar. Or a crying child, in which case you'll be able to hear it.

Hi all, when i save a patch, the coords of all object inside the patch are stored in the .pd file
#X oby 8 23 my_abstraction etc...
there is a way to retrieve those coords on runtime ?
Many thanks
