Hello list, this is just a curiosity of mineWhen we create [pd test] we can send messages to pd-test, so if i send [;pd-test vis 1] it will show up. But if i create an abstraction "test", [; test vis 1] doesn't work, i am assuming that i need to put a namecanvas there, but, is it possible to access it without namecanvas?
yes. you can use "pd-<abstractionname>.pd" (e.g. "pd-test.pd").however, i would strongly discourage you from doing so: all instances of the same abstraction have that name, so they will all become visible. use [namecanvas] to give your abstraction a unique label, or iemguts' [sendcanvas] which doesn't require a label at all.
for subpatches, you can easily create unique names, e.g. [pd $0-foo]
as a further question, a cloned abstraction also could be accessed without namecanvas? even just the first instance
this is covered in the helppatch of [clone]. fdmsar IOhannes
