thanks,

would it be possible to change the color a cord has when connecting one object
to another ?
You mean different colors for different cords depending on which objects it
connected?  That would be possible, but would be a project.  You'd have to
find a way to maintain the IDs/tags for each object and each cord and
colorized based on that.  Pd currently doesn't have any way to store that
state, so you would have to write whatever state saving you want.
that would be interesting aswell :)
but I mean when you click and drag on an outlet to connect a new cord to another object, i think before it actually becomes a *real* cord, it show a black line so you can see where you are dragging the line,
on a black background this is invisible.

either way it's a minor detail, it is still workable as the inlets and outlets light up
for the gui objects like bang, toggle slider etc i've come up with an approach
of which i'm wondering if it would work to some extend through
making changes to the put-menu.
i've traced the tcl menu, to put for example a toggle in the patch, it sends
the command: pdsend $window "toggle"

would it be possible to supply creation arguments for the objects here ?
Not using that command.  If you want to do that, then you want to do the
standard dynamic patching commands.  You can find documentation for that in
manuals -> pd-msg.
great! I was looking into that and i've managed to get it working now
i can put a big black toggle from the menu with pdsend "$::focused_window obj 20 20 toggle 50 0 empty empty test 50 10 0 20 22 23 24 1 1"

thanks!
Rob
