I'd like to find out when a user closes a subpatch window so that I can turn off a few gui features to improve overall performance.

detect-when-user-closes-subpatch-window

basically [closebang], and in your case probably with a [send].

Thanks Roman, that worked to detect the window close, but loadbang does not work to detect opening because all of the subpatch loadbangs happen when the parent is loaded. I created a button that opens the subpatch window using [pcontrol], and set the "MySubpatchIsOpen"flag too. I hide the subpatch so that the user can't double-click to open, thereby bypassing the setting of the flag.

[active] is great! I had never discovered it. Thanks so much for the info.

be warned [active] can be very tricky during programming. whenever you

change something releated to it, you have to restart the patcher.
