$0, $1 and all other variables should be at the beginning of the name
of your variable, not the end. This is the same whether it's a send,
an array or anything else.

At no point (before or after closing / re-opening properties) will the objects send or receive $0 properly.

Not anymore in recent versions of Pd, at least not in >= 0.42.

Fantastic, that did the trick. I'll keep my variables as prefixes from now on.
Though ideally the gui objects should handle variables in the same way as standard send and receive objects (and arrays), which can take variables at the beginning, end, or in the middle.
Thanks everyone!

i'm pretty sure they "can" - if they don't know about it... the problem only comes from the property editor (call it a bug) which eats the dollargs in order to prevent Pd and/or tcl to expand the $variables.
if you can set the sender/receiver names without the property editor, then you can also have "proper" dollarg expansion (you probably should not save the patch though...)
