Its often useful in Pd to open multiple instances of a patch. For example, I just release the 'many' lib which lets you run many instances of a patch. But yes, it is a bit weird when you are used to most apps where it only lets you have one instance of a file running.

Any suggestions on how to handle it both ways?

Hi,

I'm just wondering if there is reason behind PD opening another instance of an already running patch instead of just pointing to it (on OSX anyway).

To me there are a few undesirable consequences such as problems when editing, duplicates of global sends/tables and sometimes not knowing you have two open.

Maybe I'm missing something?

Cheers,
Joe
