Hi, i don't know if someone can explain me this, in my view it should be simple and it probably is but i can't find a clear explanation in documentation anywhere...i'm new doing this, so...

i decided to work on some M4L patches to control Live, basic things like volume, pan etc. The deal is that i want to drag any created patch in every random live set and random track i'm working on and it recognises automatically the id in live.path. how to do that? in LOM i see options like specific track, or selected track, or highlighted track but not identifying automatically any track i drag the patch on. any hint or help on this? i hope i was clear explaining.

In the document 'Live API Overview' look for 'Canonical Parent'.

Thank you very much, just confirmed. I found out that there is also a topic already about it here
