Using Max for Live to View a Clip

Tim Coomb's icon

I have amended the M4L abstraction SelectMasterTrack so that I can View a Clip in Ableton Live, however the attached patch is not working and I get this error message 'live.object: set: type mismatch'. Does anybody have any suggestions, workarounds etc.
Cheers
Tim

Delete 'view' from your clip path.

Thanks very much Broc. The patch now works.
I thought I would apply the same approach to viewing a device in Live, but I can't find anything suitable as an argument in [prepend] , your help again would be much appreciated.

Viewing devices needs a different approach.
