yes, you can use a data structure with a text, in some hours i can make an example, you can control the position of the text in the canvas and also its color

another trick is to use a [cnv] object and use its label method to insert text, and then you control the cnv position, this way you can also change the size and the font of the text, you can check [cnv] helpfile for some examples i guess

Hi all,

Is there a way to output text (as if using [print]) 'embedded' in a patch?

Or, alternatively, a way to define the position and visibility of a
[text] object (the actual text) programmatically? One could link a
[click( message to [text define] to have it visible but I don't think
its position (i.e. screen coordinates) are saved with the patch like
e.g. the patch position itself?

Thanks,
Lorenzo
