hi Dom, I didn't quite understand what you meant exactly by "switches", but a comfortable way I found to move panels (namely GOP subpatch/abs) is using iemguts.

Although iemguts is not included in pd-extended (and you'll find the reasons in a recent discussion on the list, you'll need to compile it) I found it worth to use it, 'cause it makes all this kind of things really easy. However I seem to understand that you can have similar functionality in GridFlow too, but I never used it so far, so I couldn't point an object/s.

With iemguts you can simply move a GOP or any other subpatch/abstraction with:

[120 30 ( x/y position | [send mypanel]

then inside your "panel"

[receive mypanel] | [canvasposition]

[canvasposition] uses arguments to define whether to communicate to the parent patch, or the one it is included in. There used to be a help-file which you could refer to.

Is it possible to have panels on PD which can be switched?

I want to make a GUI that will have in total 1600 switches. Obviously

will not all fit on one screen.

Is this possible, and are there any examples of such things?

Many thanks,
