In this wonderful thread I got advise on how to list methods for an object:

https://cycling74.com/forums/sending-a-message-directly-to-object-using-js/

For a live.toggle one of the methods available is active()

How do I call this and can this be used to disable an active button?

var objToggle = this.patcher.getnamed("livetoggle");

js: ################METHODS########################

I found that this works but not sure if this is best practise?

works to get the current value but that is not listed.. Am I missing something generic here?

var objToggle = this.patcher.getnamed("livetoggle");
listMethods(playoncebutton);
Produces this:

js: ################METHODS########################
js: reference()
js: openquery()
js: bang()
js: outputvalue()
js: int()
js: float()
js: assign()
js: set()

I found that this works but not sure if this is best practise?objToggle.set(0);

Also objToggle.getvalueof();  works to get the current value but that is not listed.. Am I missing something generic here?


Disable live.toggle from javascript syntax
