If I set a label with an escaped space per the help file, and I then right click on
the nbx and select properties, I get a TCL unhandled error message (and no properties
window):

I attach an example patch, but I can do this directly in the “pd font/label” subpatch
of the “pd properties” subpatch of numbox2-help.pd. (Pd version 0.51.2 on Linux.)

It does seem to be the space that is the problem: try [symbol no_space( in the
example patch.

Is this a known bug? Is it just me?

Best
