multiple views of a patcher?

ch's icon

Hi,

Is there's a way to have 2 views of the same patcher in a max app?
Or a way to open a new view of a patcher at runtime with some message to max or something ?

not sure you if can do like "view->new view" programatically, maybe possible but i do'nt know how. Workaround that i do know : having your main patch with subpatchers in tabs (it can be one subpatch) and you send a "front" message to [thispatcher] in this tab, it brings a new view of the tab to front as a separate patcher window. ("it's not a bug, it's a fature"...)
