When I use pattrstorage in a M4L device, using @parameter_enable 1, I expect pattrstorage to restore data that was saved with the Live document.

How do I know when pattrstorage has finished reloading the saved data?

For example, if I want to attach [loadmess 1] to pattrstorage (to restore preset 1 when the device initialises) I have to wait for the stored data to be loaded before trying to recall a preset.

Use [live.this_device] instead of loadmess. It will initiate after the parameters have been restored, then you can call your preset.

I had tried that, and it didn't seem to be working (though I was actually sending the getslotnamelist to pattrstorage, rather than trying to load a preset)

I was able to make 'getslotnamelist' work on device initialisation by putting a deferlow in the path of the bang output by live.thisdevice, before it called that method on pattrstorage.

Another case of deferlow saving the day in a M4L device.....
