canvas.name
The canvas.name object outputs the symbolic name of the current Pure Data patch or its parent patches. It can be configured with a float to specify the depth level (e.g., 1 for parent, 2 for grandparent) or with the symbol -env to retrieve the name of the main patch window's environment. This object is particularly useful for dynamic patching, allowing other objects to receive messages based on the patch's name.
