Hi --
1: Is the technique of setting object attributes via messages documented anywhere?
How to set iemgui properties via messages was documented in Pd-extended menu (but not in vanilla):

5: I would prefer to set an object's color via an RGB value Can I do that?
Attached patch [colormaker] demonstrates how to set RGB values using this formula:
-(1 + blue + green * 256 + red * 65536)
where blue, green and red are integers 0 - 255
There is one caveat: many RGB values can not be saved because numbers are stored with reduced precision.
