I have a patch with several subpatchers that get values from the patch's top level via the [value] object. Because of a misunderstanding about scheduling, my patch is messed up because the subpatcher [value] objects get the values before the values are even reported to the original top-level [value] objects. Does anyone have a workaround or solution to this?

Most important object in Max: [trigger], also known as [t].

Sorry for not including this the first time around, but this is an example of the problem I'm dealing with. I'd like the value in the subpatcher to be printed AFTER the higher-level patcher.

Use [trigger] when you want one thing done before another.
