Well, if you threw a [tgl] into a subpatch or abstraction, got the object chain that it's in working, then closed that window and the [tgl] no longer passes messages, it is extremely likely that your patch will no longer work.
Ok, you mean how [tgl] also does something without a GUI ?That's because many GUI objects aren't « purely GUI objects », whereas Toxy allows you only to make GUI objects. This means that you have to wrap nearly every use of Toxy inside some kind of abstraction, in order to provide the extra features.
It's not the best way to say it, though, because for example, most methods of IEMGUI are for configuring GUI stuff such as colour and font size. Instead, let's say that anything that you still want to work with -nogui has to be implemented like that, and that principle also happens to apply to closed subpatches, closed abstr-instances, ever and minimised windows.
At least that's what I remember the last time I used [widget]. It also didn't [loadbang] properly which was annoying.
The concept of [widget] is interesting, but I think that it needs to be redone in some other way. Just like all the GUI.
At this point, though, my opinion on how to do it has changed significantly since the DD days, which is part of why I don't especially want to finish DD (and this change of opinion also has to do with persistent patterns in bugs I encountered).
