 what, you can just select the groupt you want, and see/move/whatever the involved objects the group name could also act
 as a template for the name of a subpatch, if one decides to finally put them into one ....

+Hello,
+here's my current Pd GUI wishlist, things that could streamline my work 
+flow, things that don't seem logical to me...etc:
+
+I wish:
+-going in and out of edit mode was reflected by the cursor turning into 
+a hand or arrow immediately, not requiring the user to move it first, 
+who, if newbie, can get confused if he/she hasn't moved the mouse.
+(this is the case on some versions I use in class, specifically 
+pd-extended OSX I think)
+-shift-click-and-drag on a number box would also work after you already 
+clicked. Another idea: ctrl-click-drag to increment in steps of 10 or 100.
+-home, end, shift+left/right, ctrl+left/right, ctrl+shift+left/right 
+would work within object boxes just like in a text editor.
+-click+drag a single object or messagebox wouldn't automatically 
+activate text entry mode but the object itself stays the selection, so 
+that you can move it again or use arrow keys for repositioning without 
+having to deselect+reselect first.
+-for a multiple connections facility, to connect all outlets of object a 
+to all inlets of object b, and variations on that. (I think max has had 
+this for a while, and maybe desiredata ?).
+-'subpatcherize'
+-that when deleting all text in a comment and clicking outside it, the 
+comment would be deleted, so that if you save the patch, close it, and 
+reopen it, there doesn't appear the word 'comment' everywhere you left a 
+'blank' comment this way. Alternatively it could become 'comment' upon 
+finalizing an empty comment, so that you can still see, select and 
+delete it.
+-the file browser (openpanel/savepanel) would support keystrokes to 
+navigate: alt+up one dir up, tab to toggle focus between text entry and 
+graphical area (where folders and files are displayed)...etc
+-opening the filebrowser wouldn't cause the Pd main window to pop in 
+front of all the patcher windows after it is closed.
+-one object could be finalized by clicking the outlet of another object, 
+so that you can immediately connect it. The extra click outside the 
+object to finalize it first is unnecessary. When I click the outlet of 
+another object, it is obvious that I am done typing the name of the 
+current one.

+
+Hi,
+this list is great! I would like to add the one again that I posted 
+yesterday (sorry for double posting, but this thread subject is better)
+
+- when only one object is selected and you start typing (any other than 
+arrows) it should be possible to write into the object without an 
+additional click into the object. I often use ctrl+d to duplicate an 
+object and then arrow keys to place it on the canvas, and then I would 
+like to just start typing into the object.
+- when there is more than one object selected and I click into one 
+object, but do not drag, then that object could switch to type-entry 
+mode. right now I have to unselect all objects by clicking into the 
+canvas and then click into the box to start text entry.
+- exiting entry mode with enter would actually be nice, too. (for 
+messages cr could be shift+enter (the cr is overwritten anyway).
+- more actions could be triggered by keyboard shortcuts?
+-  the alt click and drag function. you click on an object and as soon 
+as you start dragging that object is duplicated, but at the same time 
+you already have the new object at the cursor position and can place it 
+fast at a new spot.
+
+I want to point out that in many cases this would mean different 
+behaviour between clicking, and clicking+dragging.
+
+plus new: keyboardshortcuts to bring the pd window to the front (to 
+watch console output.
+- and also change the cursor to arrow when you hit the command key to 
+imply that clicking on messages or numbers has different behaviour (play 
+mode) when you hit apple (or ctrl on win/lin?).
+
+marius.
