[PD-dev] loadbang and sys_vgui

Hi,
     I've run into an issue with my tooltips when using manual mode:

[loadbang]
|
[tip 1 hello(
|
[s foo]

[namecanvas foo]
This creates a window with a label that has the text "hello".

But when loadbang'd the label is set too narrow.  The text displayed like this:

h
e
l
l
o

In testing I found I have to use a [del 200] to get the text to display correctly.

Seems like the dimensions of the patch window aren't fully set at loadbang time.

Any advice on a way to make it display correctly when loadbang'd?

Patch is at:
