Yes with visibility setting we can access an element of an array only, so each state can be stored, retrieved, replaced at will by accessing an element of te array... The matter is how accessing an element, idealy it would be a [nbx] where max value is the number of array elements, or a

that's very easy, just get the number of elements from the array's pointer, and send it as [max $1( to the nbox (or whichever command defines the limits, I don't have Pd open).

scalar but I don't how it's possible to fix limits to [drawnumber]

I think not from the gui. Unless you enforce it programatically: route the "change" output from the [struct] in the template, and use it to force the maximum number to a [set] object. Like:

[struct drawnumber...]
|
[route change]
|
[50(  (assuming 50 is the current max number)
|
[set drawnumber...]


In a parallel part, the current pointer gets and sets the maximum number of elements (now at 50)

Look at the current help file for [drawnumber] for more details.

Objet: Re: [PD] Data structures: no object for freeing pointers?

One approach is to assign a variable for active/unactive scalars. And
then
use that variable to render the scalar visible/invisible. After a
work
session, the user can hide the active scalars, display the inactive
ones,
and select + delete these. It's still far from ideal, but a
compromise.
