[gen~ bug?] buffer second argument

jvkr's icon

The gen reference mentions for the buffer object: ...the second optional argument specifies the name of the external buffer~ object to reference...

I was about to report that this doesn't work, but I know find that this doesn't work while patching, but starts to work after copying and pasting it in a new patcher, or after saving and reopening.

Copy patch and select New From Clipboard in Max.

In regards to the buffer object, will it be possible in the future to dynamically rename them?
