Friends, please, assist me with a question.
I want to have a subpatch refer to the name of its parent patch.
The subpatch will be a gop object that can be dropped into parent patches of varying names. The subpatch will have a list of gop abstractions that can be automatically created in a parent patch. How can I get the name of the parent patch from the subpatch for the subsequent [send]?
I have tried [parentdollarzero]. Does it just generate the random number associated with the parent? This is what it looks like to me. Can this number be used with my dynamic patching [send] in a way of which I am not aware?
On another message board, someone recommended [gf/canvas_*], but I don't have gridflow working nor do I want to include it because I am doing this programming for someone else.
Do any of you have solutions for me? I would greatly appreciate advice!
Cheers, Sam
