[PD] Setting a variable in abstractions

[Jack]

Yes, it's better to use two instances of PD when you have GEM and  
audio stuff. But here i think there is no problem because you have  
not any sound object.
As write Derek, the problem could come from your number box, but it  
is not sure.
Maybe you can also use [text3d] instead [text2d].
