something seems to be wrong with your clock. here it is september 2020, and the properties dialog works *fine* with labels that contain spaces. it's probably because i use Pd-0.51 (the fix has been submitted by miller somewhen between Pd-0.50-2 and Pd-0.51-0test1).
Dear IOhannes
That seems a little harsh. Consider the following simple test patch:
#N canvas 515 93 1400 981 12; #X msg 116 85 label space\ cadet; #X obj 116 152 bng 15 250 50 0 empty empty space\ cadet 17 7 0 10 -262144 -1 -1; #X connect 0 0 1 0;
Open the patch in Pd; click the message box; then try to open the properties dialogue (with the right-click menu).
On Pd version 0.51.2 on Linux, I get a TCL error (and no properties dialogue):
(Tcl) UNHANDLED ERROR: wrong # args: should be "pdtk_iemgui_dialog mytoplevel mainheader dim_header wdt min_wdt wdt_label hgt min_hgt hgt_label rng_header min_rng min_rng_label max_rng max_rng_label rng_sched lin0_log1 lilo0_label lilo1_label loadbang steady num_label num snd rcv gui_name gn_dx gn_dy gn_f gn_fs bcol fcol lcol" while executing "pdtk_iemgui_dialog .gfxstub55f245fc3420 |bang| ----------dimensions(pix):----------- 15 8 size: 0 0 empty --------flash-time(m..." ("uplevel" body line 1) invoked from within "uplevel #0 $docmds"
It is true that if I open the patch and go straight to the properties dialogue without clicking the message box first, the properties dialogue works as you say.
Best
