i'm not too sure this is what you are looking for but there is some information about canvases in the doc/5.reference section, something along the lines of "mycanveses.pd" or some phrase with the word "canvas" in it, but it demonstrates thaat you can get the x and y coordinates of canvase objects which are, i think, children of the parent window. is that what it means to "show on parent"? got me, but that feature of getting x,y coordinates of canvases is realy cool. is there a way to for you to get that information dynamically, in the sense that you don't have to use the metro object to bang the coordinates out? i figure not, but i'm just curious. -mark .k
