No, I'm just looking to 'hide' the window. 'wclose' destroys the window

That's useful. Looking at the messlist, I see there is a 'hidden'

message, but I can't make it work. Maybe it's not the right thing, but:

object_method(x->integra_subpatch, gensym("hidden"), true);

It's no big deal if this functionality isn't available. Just interested,

No, I'm just looking to 'hide' the window. 'wclose' destroys the window
and frees all objects inside it.

That's useful. Looking at the messlist, I see there is a 'hidden'
message, but I can't make it work. Maybe it's not the right thing, but:

        object_method(x->integra_subpatch, gensym("hidden"), true);

It's no big deal if this functionality isn't available. Just interested,
that's all.

Judging from the messages available for the thispatcher object, I expect

A possible workaround would be to offset the coordinates of the patcher to

Judging from the messages available for the thispatcher object, I expect
there is no "hide" command.

A possible workaround would be to offset the coordinates of the patcher to
somewhere outside the screen.

I think what you want is probably something like this:

wind_invis((t_wind *)x->integra_subpatch->p_wind);

which deals with the window directly, rather than the owning patcher - see ext_wind.h for more...

Thanks. I think this will only work in Max

inner workings of the t_patcher struct aren't exposed in the Max 5 API.
