Why doesn't the poly~ object automatically update the number of ins/outs when the encapsulated patcher is edited?

When I double-click on the poly~ after editing ins/outs, the changes are obviously there - so why do I have to close the original patch, then reopen, to reflect the changes?

I don't get this. Please tell me I missed something.

it could be that this is intended, because in one point there i a difference

beetween poly~ and other subpatchers such as bpatchers or subpatchers:

the poly object box does not directly reflect a patch loaded from disk into

or on other words: the poly object box is not representing a certain voice

Could be, but I still don't understand why an intended user change is not reflected in the poly~ object in most instances.

It should at least be a user selectable choice to make this automatic - if possible.

you´re right, that doesnt explain why it is not implemented as if.

Anyways, you can get the new in/output easier by just reloading the poly patch via deleting the poly~ object and hitting command+z, all the connections also will be intact again.

A very primitive method of working for software in its 6th incarnation, but I'll take it. :)
