I have multiple bpatchers in a max patch. Each of them use the same patch file, which includes a pattr system involving a [preset] object. Now, I'm trying to have it so that when I add a new preset with [preset], the same preset shows up in all the other [preset] objects in the other bpatchers, pretty much instantly. They are all using the same pattrstorage file, and even have @autowatch 1 setup - yet the only reliable way to get them all to update is to close and open the whole max patch (that all the bpatchers are encompassed in). I have messed around with thispatcher, sending savewindow and write messages to try and jog the bpatchers to update and re-read the json preset file, but I only seem to get a rare hit and miss.

try using the "readagain" message on each of the pattrstorage objects. They should reload their data.

Thanks so much. I realised that the problem was that the pattrstorage was not actually being written to on time in the first place, so I now send a "writeagain" message to it after presets are made.
