Hi !

PD 0.56.1
LUBUNTU 24.04 (LXQT)

Is it possible to find out PD's editmode state via a message or an object ?

I know about IEMGUT's [receivecanvas] that gives out that information, 
but only for that specific canvas, in which the object resides.

A general method to query PD's overall editmode state would be great, 
maybe as a message to the [pdcontrol] object (like the "isvisible" 
message) ?

BACKGROUND: I am controlling a quite intense PD patch with the keyboard. 
Unfortunately all my keystrokes are also getting "read" when I'm in 
editmode, causing quite a chaos (unless i deactivate the [key] object. 
Would be great to be able to automate this.

[receivecanvas] for about 50 subpatches is possible but something i'd 
rather avoid ;-)

Thanks for any hints !

Best

Oliver
