I want to create an object and give it a scripting name via JavaScript.

For many objects (bpatcher, nslider, kslider etc. etc.) I can just use the "@varname" parameter in my

But certain objects - like receive - don't seem to work that way, the @varname just gets added to the receive

name, so i end up with an "receive foo @varname ..." object.

Am I doing anything wrong or is there another method to set the scripting name of a receive object?

Dear Maxers,

set-scripting-name-when-"varname"-doesn't-work

just use the objectname.varname = "myScriptingName" command

For anyone wondering in the future :
just use the objectname.varname = "myScriptingName" command
