Fantastic, that did the trick. I'll keep my variables as prefixes from now on.

Though ideally the gui objects should handle variables in the same way as standard send and receive objects (and arrays), which can take variables at the beginning, end, or in the middle.

i'm pretty sure they "can" - if they don't know about it... the problem only comes from the property editor (call it a bug) which eats the dollargs in order to prevent Pd and/or tcl to expand the $variables.

if you can set the sender/receiver names without the property editor, then you can also have "proper" dollarg expansion (you probably should not save the patch though...)
