Thanks and congratulations for the new Max!

The Textbutton is very usefull, but in order to replace the 

combination of ubutton and fpic, it would be nice if we had the 

possibility to detect both the Mouse Down and the Mouse Up. There is a 

lot of case where only Mouse Down or only Mouse Up is not enough.

This is not going to happen unless you have a good strategy to 

implement it without requiring to add any new outlet, or breaking any 

existing patch. The question came during the beta testing, but it 

would have cause too much complexity to use the object. You can easily 

accomplish that with ubutton for all sort of click detections, so
