getattr with non ui objects

Luke Hall's icon

If I do something like somename.getattr("patching_rect") it works fine when "somename" is the maxobj of a ui object like [number] but not with an object like [select]. Can getattr return attributes of objects where you set the attribute with a "sendbox" message? And if so, how do I go about achieving this? Any pointers would be welcome!

I've stumbled back into this problem again. Is there any way to use getattr() with objects that require "sendbox" messages to set attributes? If it isn't possible to do this could someone from C74 let me know, just so I can stop puzzling over it.
