Another option is the "coords" message. In my mind, this is always preferable to "donecanvasdialog" because you don't need to dirty it, and because the syntax is slightly easier to remember. If you open the .pd file in a text editor, you'll find the "coords" term at the very bottom, and you can work it out from there.

yes, add a "dirty 0" message to the GOP's namecanvas, like this:


put a [namecanvas YOURNAME] onto the patch's top level.


then send it a message like this:

[donecanvasdialog 1 -1 3 0 -1 1 1 100 100 10 10, dirty 0(

[send YOURNAME]
