I'm in the process of making a new program. This program contains quite a lot of bpatchers. When designing the GUI I'm constantly switching from one patch window to another and before I know it I have 10 or more windows open. Wouldn't it be nice if we can just click a patcher in the Project window and the "edit" patcher window simply update its contents?

Just thinking something similar. See my post about one window (IDE style) max. But I like your solution a lot, and it seems like it would be pretty easy to offer as an option.

As a workaround, I made this. It makes it easy to open windows from a central place. But it's a fair amount of ongoing work to set it all up. Not worth it except for large projects. And all the patches you want to open have to be already in an opened heirarchy. So definitely not as helpful.

Maybe a more experienced programmer could create a better workaround.....

Here's an improved version..... maybe this will be helpful to someone. It's working great for me. You'll need the previous example to tell how to wire this up on the receiving end.

One window for editing patchers?
