do you know how the numbers change if you cut everything from patch and paste it back in ?? my impression is that it does not start from zero ?? What if you copy it to a new patch ? then it should start from zero.....
Well, if you are making these patches PROGRAMMATICALLY, then you can't cut and paste, as there is no way to do that in programming.
You might want to open up some abstractions in a text editor, you can see the code that PD uses to create these objects directly. It is very enlightening.
Well sure i could keep track of that....but what if i would like to modify an existing patch....
Can't do it programmatically. You can only add objects to an existing patch, and if it is something that already has existing objects, there is no way to know how many objects are already in a patch. mike
