Thanks. Can we take the question mark out of that? :) -m-

Hm, not sure-- maybe you've got multiple instances of the same abstraction open and are modifying a different one?

To simplify, try testing it in a [pd subpatch].  You can actually see the wires to any connected objects in the parent patch change when you alter the horizontal placement of one [inlet] with respect to another.

Correct me if I'm wrong but this doesn't work for me. They stay in order of creation, the abstraction object doesn't change when I move the horizontal alignment of the inlets in the subpatch.

As seen here:

doc/2.control.examples/12.PART2.subpatch.pd (inside [pd eager-adder])   Also in: http://crca.ucsd.edu/~msp/Pd_documentation/x2.htm#s7   Trivia: If you put a bunch of [inlet] objects at the exact same x position in a canvas, the order in which they were created (from most recent to least recent) corresponds to the left-to-right order of the subpatch's inlets on the parent patch.  In other words: if you have: [inlet] [inlet]   There's no way to tell by looking what the ordering is.  So, obviously, don't do that, but also keep in mind that it's a good idea in general to keep all [inlet] objects in a horizontal row so one can quickly grasp their left-to-right order merely by looking at the patch:   [inlet]     [inlet]   is much clearer than:   [inlet] [inlet]  [inlet]   (Same for [outlet].)   -Jonathan
