Sorry to ask that here, as it is more of a Lemur question than a Max thing par se, but I find this forum much more helpful ...

When sending multiple text items to a multi labeled object (such as a menu), I send a list. The spaces between the words set the text to the next menu item:

"/Menu @items Violin1 Violin2 Viola Cello CBass" sets item 1 to Violin1, item 2 to VIolin2,...

"/Menu @items Violin 1 Violin 2 Viola Cello Contra Bass" I get 8 entries to the menu: 1) "Violin" 2) "1" 3) Violin ... 8) Bass.

Obviously not what I want in that case ... So, is it possible at all to tell Lemur to enter a space between words of one menu item? If so, how can I pack or z-list a text of unknown length in the format, that is interpreted correctly by the Lemur?

The item "violin 1" in max terms would be a symbol, containing a space in itself.

sending /Menu @items "violin 1" "violin 2" etc works.

Sending spaces via OSC to Lemur
