I apologize if this has been discussed before, but I haven't found an answer through searching or from anything I've read in the Pd literature.

Having an issue with duplicating sub-patches with receive~'s in the sub-patch. The send~'s and receive~'s both are named with "-$0" at the end, which should create a unique name per-patch, but this doesn't seem to hold true for sub-patches. When I duplicate the sub-patch, I get a warning in the Pd window. I don't get this warning when I implement the same module as an abstraction.

Am I missing a step, or is this just the nature of Pd, that a unique name is only generated for a parent patch, and not for children (except for the case of abstractions)?

Any help would be awesome. Thanks!

Hi Travis

you are right, parrent and subpatch share the same $0 number. You would have to create an abstraction or pass the unique number to the sub via inlet.

hope that helps,
