In order to simplify the structure of paths to several library/objects in the recent Pd-extended releases, a pd-externals folder is created during the installation. I would generally recommend to make use of that folder for one's own library/objects and other libs. M I don't entirely follow

It#39;s still a common vocabulary. You#39;re not rewriting the abstractions (or renaming them) every time. And in your case why not just have the several different patches all be in the same folder with the abstractions? -Jonathan ___

I don't entirely follow what is happening with your files. But in order to access abstractions they need to have a file path, which you can setup via the preferences menuPath. I don't know if you are aware of this or not. I put all mine in a folder called abstractions which I have set up a path
