But if you really want to hide things, you can hide both the connections and the ordinary objects by using the Graph-on-Parent (GOP) feature of subpatches and abstractions.
or use sends/receives to your gui in paralell. Sometimes it's also not easy to adjust gop into the original patch, as one atom might be in the left corner, and the next atom relating to it in the opposing corner of the screen. careful with feedback, it might be better to always use [set $1( when sending values to the gui.
