use hover in a subpatcher, abstraction

Copy patch and select New From Clipboard in Max.

How to use hover in an abstraction? Only works if it is in the same patcher as the hover object.

Need it in order to build more "interacti ve" ui elements.

Or are there alternatives to build an ui element that can report once the value change is done?

You need to keep [hover] outside of your abstraction. This limitation is a bit annoying but you can always get around it.

But in your specific use case, maybe [mousefilter] is all you need!
