Quick question: is it possible to dynamically alter the send/receive symbols for GUI objects? I know that one can change most attributes through various messages but is it possible to alter their send/receive symbols?

p.s. It's been a few years since I posted any messages here. I hope everyone is keeping well!

yes (for the iemguis, that is) just have a look at the [pd edit] in the help patch.
(admittedly it is a bit cryptic; have a look at the upper-right corner :-)

[send] and [receive] objects have static creation arguments, and cannot be changed dynamically, however its possible to change the attribute using abstractions and a bit of dynamic patching, see the attached files. quite simply a matter of creating the send + receive objects dynamically in a subpatch and routing the send/receive outlet/inlet to the abstractions outlet/inlet.. hope this helps..

many thanks IOhannes,
i have never really realised that [send] without an argument allows for dynamic allocation, many years later this is a minor revelation (which has been looking at me directly in the face for even longer).. unfortunately [receive] does not have the same parameters, so my hack still applies..
cheers.. (old dog new trick)

yes, just like every other properties. look at the help file of each
object (although they all follow the same method, I think).
you can also look at jmmmp/gui-edit, if you have pd-ext.
