hi João,
there used to be a crash-case of sending a 'find' message to a closed window, corrected in one of .35 test versions. Not sure if the fix has been equally enough for linux and msw.
Just sending the 'vis 0' (without the following 'find', 'cut', etc.) is not known to produce crashes, at least it is not reproducible here.
Could you please describe your case better, like including info about an os, pd version, and, possibly, a context?

btw, the normal' way of applying a fir filter would be to read ir from an array by a specialized object like buffir~ of msp (not yet in sickle, sorry:). But, anyway, for modeling thenormal' filter
parameters, I would suggest designing iir filters with biquad~.

I am writing a patch for FIR filter design in the old way, by realizing the formula y(n)=a(n)+b(n-1)+c(n-2)+...+?(n-??) with z~. All the work is ready, but I am just missing the designs. I wanted to make also some presets and the ability to design the filter from normal parameters (type, cutoff freq, etc). Does anybody knows how to make the calculus for FIR filters, to know the equation?
By the way, there is a bug in the dynamic instructions: when the instruction "vis 0" is given to a already closed subpatch, the program crashes.
