`opt/alt` key with `function` with `mode: curve` contained in `bpatcher`

A function set to mode: curve supports holding opt/alt key and dragging to change the curve amount.

An odd quark of this is that when function is contained in a bpatcher this works but only if the argument of the bpatcher is set to #1 . If the argument is not set to #1 then

I'm curious if anyone knows any more about why this works, and if there's a different work around?

I'm looking for a different way to make opt/alt without setting the argument to #1 because I use the argument for instance handling, so I can't always set it to #1.

I see no problems with that at all.

At least in Max 8

You're right, thanks for replying! When I made a fresh example entirely from scratch, I couldn't replicate the behavior. I think I figured it out, I had an initial value set that included "linear" in it, strange the behavior manifested this way, but removing linear there seems to have resolved it.
