[PD] canvasindex depth mystery

[oliver]

hi,

just discovered something in IEMGUTS [canvasindex] that might be a bug
(or maybe i didn't get the concept ...)

[canvasindex]' help patch shows how to get the total number of objects 
inside a patcher hierarchy (right outlet). this doesn't work on my 
system (Win 7 , 64 bits, PD 0.47.1) - the ouput shows nothing.

however, it DOES output the right info when i change the subpatches 
argument to "0".

but as far as i understood, according to IEMGUTS parent-depth numbering, 
an argument of 1 should go "one level up" to get its infos, while "0" 
means "this level".

attached is an example patch that demonstrates what i mean. 
[canvasindex] works, but with a "depth level shift", where the 
parent-depth "0" does what usually parent-depth "1" does.

can somebody else reproduce this ?

best

oliver
