Re: Rename an Icon?

I imported an image onto a card and recorded the ID that LC assigned to it: 1003 I then cut the image and immediately pasted it. The ID of that image was 1006. This all makes sense to me. The IDE creates ID's as controls are created, without any thought to maintaining their original assignments. It...

Re: Rename an Icon?

The OP's issue was that the ID he was using appears to be changing. The naming is a different issue. I'm not aware this can happen unless the image has been duplicated/pasted - but perhaps I'm wrong. S. Yes. This is what is happening. I haven't duplicated or pasted the icon BUT I did duplicate the ...

Re: Rename an Icon?

You can, obviously, name all the images you use as icons. If you want to give your images numbers, then to avoid the problem with the IDE mucking around with image ID numbers surely the best thing to do is name the images with numbers? This will mean that the image you name "27" will still be calle...

Re: Rename an Icon?

The inspector appears any time you double click on a control. In contrast to older tutorials, the various sections in the PI are now tiny icons at the top of the inspector. If you open the PI for a button you will see a section for icons… Hope this answers your questions? Thank you for your reply. ...

Re: Coding Problem?

Aha. Good. You will learn more about the nature of controls, the card on which they reside, the stack the card lives on, the hierarchy of them all, etc., as you get along. The hard way is the best way. Just keep writing. Ask here. We all race to see who can answer first... Craig I think this is gre...

Re: Coding Problem?

I got it guys! I know what I was doing wrong. I didn't click on the second button in order to write the code for it. Instead I thought of it as a whole and put the code under the code I wrote for the first button. Thanks for helping me. Much appreciation!
