hi,

it works indeed, and after setting toggle's front-color to white, the cross will be invisible.

There is a peculiar Pd feature exploited here: mouse clicks are handled by the oldest object having a matching rectangle and ``willing to handle a click'' (for example a standard text object box having a "click" method). Since the oldest is the one at the bottom, I think this is not what one would expect, though...

Changing this behaviour is quite simple (see the attachment), but is it desired, if looking at a broader picture? After all, this is yet another order dependence headache...

btw, having switched to Debian (woody), I found that Pd configure seems to be still not Debian-compatible. Do all Pd/Debian users really start with ln -s /usr/include/tcl8.3/*.h /usr/include? Strange.

you can place them on a toggle with a larger size. the toggle gets a

when you click on it, but you cannot reach the abstraction, although

it is

above/on top.
