hello,

I noticed that part of my issues (blank canvas on opening) was related to
having an image on the canvas, like:

#X obj 1165 272 image ./doc/fig0.gif 0;

removing that line the canvas opens quickly but I cannot move slides,
number boxes etc.In my case the gui is totally unresponsive.
Saving the patch, restarting pd ==> everything seems to be fine.

I attach the example patch (with the path to the image at the same level
w.r.t. the patch) and the associated image file.
In my case the attached patch does the following:
1. starts completely blank
2. clicking on save all the elements on the patch appear (but not all!) and
the message:

warning: saving iemgui colors as hex symbol. These colors are readable
in Pd Vanilla since 0.47, but they are not readable in Purr Data
version 2.12.0 or earlier. If you need to remain compatible with older
versions of Purr Data please run in compatibility mode with Vanilla
version 0.47 like this:

Is triggered. Numberboxes are unresponsive in my case.
3. editng the patch, removing the image, closing it, closing and repoening
purr data all the elements appear and everything is ok.

So the culprit is "image" ???

Thanks for the feedback,

Alberto
