i'm trying to create a message box for a patch i'm working on...

i managed to create this message;

;
pd-granular.pd obj 200 20 comment 0 9 . granular v.0.2

this creates the comment "granular v.0.2" inside the patch called granular.pd.

i need to be able to delete this message and send others instead to certain positions within the patch...

any abstractions you guys know about that could be helpful?

right click on a message box to open its help patch. then have a look at [pd changing messages]

that should help i hope

yeah i already checked that out...

is there any way to set the receive of a comment object ?

ahhh! i see what you want to do now.

no, i don't think there is any way to set a receive for comments.

my suggestion would be to use a canvas instead of a comment. that way you can change the label of the canvas to match your needs, and you can also move the canvas around in the patch if you need to.

again, just create and canvas and right click to get the edit options.

one more thing is that you have spaces in your label name. "granular v 0.2"
normally canvases won't let you use spaces, but i think you can get around that by using [list2symbol] to create one long symbol containing spaces.
