as I can see it can be done with mouse coordinates, but it would be nicer if it was something that could be dragable. I want to make one object to play each chord when the mouse is over, and to be able to select one scale for each music by placing the objects together can I use [iem_event] or [gf/mouse_spy] to do that?
[gf/mouse_spy] also will reports clicks and unclicks, and you can process that with [#mouse] to give you a simple drag-and-drop mechanism, but at the same time, it won't prevent pd's own interpretation of mouse clicks in a canvas.
with [#see] you can display a picture in a patch and get the same output as [gf/mouse_spy] clipped and translated to the rectangle of the picture. (mouse over top left corner of the picture will give 0 0 regardless of the position of the picture in the patch).
