good morning,
I have some problems with "gate". when I open saved patch the with gate's objet I ha the message "couldn't create" but if I rename the object it is create.
rename it to [iemlib/gate] and it should always load ok
Why does this happen? Does the above advice always work. I don't understand the reason but assume it's a path search/search order issue.

rename it to [iemlib/gate] and it should always load ok
at least when you are using pd-extended (which i don't know).
and only if you are really using iemlib's [gate]; there are several others which behave differently.
the (imho) better solution would be to use [spigot] instead of [gate], since this is a built-in and does not require _any_ hack.
iemlib's [gate]'s only feature (as compared to [spigot]) was that you could set it's initial state with arguments. since recent versions of pd, [spigot] does the same. so there are exactly 0 reasons to continue using this object.

This would also work on Pd-vanilla or devel if you have the iemlib
objects installed into extra/iemlib.

indeed, sorry for the confusion and the heckmeck.
iemlib's abstractions are usually stored in "iemabs", so you could also try [iemabs/gate]
