I can not give a name to my jit.pwindow in the inspector

Hello everyone,

I'm currently working on a max for live project involving jitter, and I need to set a name to my jit.pwindow object, but for some reason every time I edit in the inspector and type a name of my choice, as soon as I press "Enter" it is immediately replaced by a automatically generated name. I'm struggling on this since two days now, and really badly need to understand what I'm doing wrong here.

This problem occurs only in max for live, never in max/msp standalone.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance.

strange. can you just use a message box to workaround this?

I tried that too, but it wasn't working either.

Currently the only workaround I found is to open max in standalone, and edit my amdx file then save & close, that's the only way I can write the name I want in the inspector for this object.

I also reproduce the issue also in a dummy patch with just a jit.pwindow inside with the same result, just to be sure it wasn't related to this particular patch I'm working on.

Btw: I have max 7.3.4 and Ableton Live 9.7.
