[PD] GOP text field / symbol which is resizeable? (was: GOP text field which sends bang?)

[Ivica Bukvic]

That is because tk renders them as such. In other words when text is
written inside the canvas it is not just the text itself that takes up
space but imagine a box around it as if you were to select text that
actually within tk returns visible area required by the text itself.
Finding out only the pixels assigned to text itself without having direct
access to tk is extremely cumbersome if not impossible. This is also why
comment when jam packed right against the edge of the graph on parent box
is not visible because of this invisible selection area that is reserved
for the text.
