[PD] which canvases open on patch startup?

Hi, thanks but that only seems to work for subpatches, not for
abstractions...

I have two abstractions:

[avat 0]

[avat 1]

which load 'avat.pd' of course, with args 0 and 1 respectively - any
suggestions as to how I'd get these to open at startup?

thanks

Nick
