hi
as you see here
https://vimeo.com/98800172
in my patch under each multiball object there is a multi slider controlling dly sends..
i need to program a button to hide the 8 dly multisliders and show in the same place
other 8 multisliders with their own values. the 16 multisliders must send their values all on different ccs

There are LOTS of ways to achieve this....
I went with a tabbed transparent container with no visible tab bar. In tab 1-8 are the first eight sliders and in tab 9-16 are the second 8. Using a switch button with a script you can choose to display either sliders 1-8 or sliders 9-16

Cool
i'll try to use two tabbed containers to avoid other objects to get in the containers...
is that better no?
soon a new vid then...

No need for that. You have to understand that objects in Lemur CAN be "layered" - i.e. an ojbect can be visually ON TOP of another. This means, that if you add, for example a multiball object strategically in your project so that it doesnt go INSIDE the container....you can then move it ABOVE the container.
Case in point, my example above, where the sliders are INSIDE the container while the multiballs are OVER the container but not IN IT.

great!! as you understand i have not so much time... just... have to learn how to put things inside containers.. well few mins i guess... (hope so..)
i program in maxmsp since 2004 but... i have few things going on now, so .... your help is really precious..
as far as i understand i'm asking really easy things for you... but effective.. !? saving space in one lemur page is too important for what i want to achieve
