after reducing my page, the patch is still visible in the dock. Ok. Then when

I re-open the patch normally, I mean when he is active again and am trying to save the patch, appears a pop up window who ask me to save Max.txt.

Even when I rename it the patch is not properly saved. When I open such a a patch I get this message in Max window :

parsing object, possible missing initial '{' character: line=1, char=2, text='...W'>

I work on the last i7 mac laptop, Max 5.1.8 and OS 10.6.7

I just noticed a strange behaviour :

this is a known issue/bug. i think. i seem to remember.

yes, it happens to me every time without fail trying to do anything with a patcher window after UNminimizing it from the dock in any OSX10.6.x. it is to do with the new patcher not regaining the main focus. you see it asking to save the 'Main.txt' because it thinks you want to save the contents of the Max window as a text file, as this is the window that is most likely still in focus. maybe it will be fixed for Max6.

drastic workaround - QUIT Max and it will ask to save your patch. then reopen. in future avoid minimising (pain, i liked to use this os feature all the time).

o well...since yesterday, the problem do not occurs

o well...since yesterday, the problem do not occurs
but yes, no more minimizing °-)
