Re: [PD] Weird object initialization, [list length] was symbol in disguise

I had a strange problem with a patch recently. [list length] was not outputting numbers, but the message "symbol". Also, another [list] object was missing it's right inlet, and had become disconnected.

After manually replacing those objects with "new" ones, they initialized normally, and when I reopen the patch all is fine.

How did this happen?

If I had been a bit more quick thinking, I would have kept the patch as reference, but unfortunately, I made the changes and then saved over the malfunctioning patch (being just focused on getting the patch to work). So, unfortunately, I have nothing to support my claims.

Just wondering if I am the only one who has had this behavior
