I am trying to dynamically create an array of objects and this works fine for toggle, e.g

a = patcher.newobject("toggle",122,90,15,0);

but how do you create a newobject for "Number Box" as it fails e.g

a = patcher.newobject("Number Box",122,90,15,0);

is the space in the string a problem, any help much appreciated.

to find out about the format you can open a max patch as text and 

inspect the argument list of the objects.

try "number" instead.
and you will need some more arguments.

Thanks a lot, I have opened the patch as text and used the full list of parameters.

object_array[k] = this.patcher.newobject("number" ,116, 22, 35, 9, 0, 0, 0, 3, 0, 0, 0, 221, 221, 221, 222, 222, 222, 0, 0, 0);

Parameters 2 + 3 (116 + 22) control the object positioning

var object_array = new Array(128);
object_array[k] = this.patcher.newobject("number" ,116, 22, 35, 9, 0, 0, 0, 3, 0, 0, 0, 221, 221, 221, 222, 222, 222, 0, 0, 0);

Parameters 2 + 3 (116 + 22) control the object positioning


array of newobject of type "Number Box"
