Unless any stacks apart from the executable stack are in separate stack files, they won't save changes. Substacks don't cut it.

Re: LC makes my stack a substack
Hi.
So you want two stacks, the first being your "splash" stack and the second being your "working" stack (or stacks).
Make sure that each resides in its own separate stack file. Each must live that way. If they are currently not, change them.

Are you from the South? I was once. Anyway, I know you are not, so I will inform you that what you just mentioned would be spelled, and pronounced, "sheeit".

What Stam said. Please be careful. Mixing "name" and " ID" makes it difficult to determine what is really going on...
How did you find out that referencing an image (or an icon?) caused a problem? Was it that the wrong control appeared, different from what you expected?

Re: Rename an Icon?
And you can set an alarm to go off whenever a "newImage" message is sent. Just trap it in the stack script:
Make sure your sound is turned up loud.
Craig
Code: Select all
on newImage
beep until the optionkey is down
end newimage

Re: Rename an Icon?
Have you noted the succession of changed ID's? In other words, if you copy and paste (or clone) a control the new ID will follow closely if not perfectly the ID of the lastmost created control. Do yours do that? You can use the "newImage" message to find out. That is sent each time a new image is cr...

Re: Rename an Icon?
Hi. The ID of one control will not change whatever you do to any other. I believe we are all pretty sure about that. Ironically, what LC touts as an unchangeable and invulnerable property (the ID) seems not to be in your setup. There has to be something else going on. This issue has never come up be...

Re: Rename an Icon?
Comforting is the fact that all other properties, like the control name, are held constant. The ID is therefore a different kind of property than any other, pertinent to the ongoing development of the controls comprising a stack, as opposed to any information about the controls themselves. I suppose...

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: Using field with "answer" dialog open

Rereading, there is an oddity, "...Just make sure the field stays active when the dialog pops up."
Such sloppy verbiage is not uncommon in life, but do you think this snippet came from a human (spam) or a "C" rated AI helper (bot)?

Interesting.
But if a spammer, he/she/them knew enough about LC to post an erroneous, er, post.
Odd, no?

Yep. Clicking anywhere in a line essentially sets the cursor at that point, and that is a changed selection.
Craig
Code: Select all
on selectionChanged
delete line word 2 of the clickline of the target
end selectionChanged
