Howdy folks, sorry I been away for a second, out on some family business.

Is it possible to use thispatcher scripting to manipulate an object's size and position in presentation mode?

scripting-and-presentation-size

No need for thispatcher. You can just use the presentation_rect attribute.

Can we do this for all attributes visible in the inspector? Are there any attributes not listed in the inspector? How do I look at the proper format for attributes in messages other than opening the patcher as text?

Wouldn't it be nice if there were a submenu on the left inlet for common box properties?

( script sendbox varname presentation_rect X. Y. W. H. )

X & Y is the position in presentation mode and 

or this way:

( script sendbox varname presentation_rect X. Y. W. H. )

[ thispatcher ]

where "varname" is the scripting name, 
X & Y is the position in presentation mode and 
W & H is the Width and Height...
