Reading name of bpatcher instance from inside the bpatcher.
Dec 09 2015 | 2:27 am
I have a bunch (about 20) bpatcher instances in a patch, and they all have sensible scripting names. From inside the bpatcher, I'd like to be able to read the scriptingname of the instance, and display it on a label. Currently I'm sending each instance's name from the parent patch to each bpatcher on loadbang, and again it seems messy. Can the bpatcher instance read it's script name?
thanks.
