Hi,

To reproduce: - in the attached files: open abstraction_patch.maxpat - make the patcher window grow, using the mouse on the corner of the window: it only grow vertically as specified with the "window constrain". - now open parent_patch.maxpat, then click on the "open" messagebox to open the bpatcher's patch - then make this window grow: it now grow everywhere, it doesn't constrain anymore. (Apparently other window messages to [thispatcher] behave the same)

We building a nice modular interface in max, constraining the size of the module windows, but we want to open those from smaller bpatchers...

Regards,
