#1290 Tcl error on closing subpatch with array

[Anonymous]

I started getting this Tcl error:

(Tcl) INVALID COMMAND NAME: invalid command name ".x1e85d08.c"
while executing
".x1e85d08.c delete plot1e9715c"
("uplevel" body line 1)
invoked from within
"uplevel #0 $docmds"

when I close a subpatch containing an array while data is frequently written to that array with [array set] or [tabwrite]. I can more or less reproduce it with the attached patch.

As a side effect sometimes the graphics of all GUI elements stop to update. For example, I can still move a slider and change the value but it doesn't change visually. Years ago I got a similar GUI freeze issue with Pd-extended together with a Tcl error but in another context.

I tested on Pd 0.47.1 + Windows 7.
Other user also get this Tcl error on OSX: https://lists.puredata.info/pipermail/pd-list/2017-03/118477.html

I also get the same problem often when working on visible patches with
scalars - although it happens more often when I use many scalars, e.g.
around 39000. Not so often when there are only around 100 of them.

Best,

Joao
