Backdrop problem

Post by Rob van der Sloot » Sun Aug 10, 2014 9:27 pm

I have the following script:

on mouseUp
open stack "ATT"
go to cd 1
show stack "ATT"
set the backdrop to "white"
set the width of stack "ATT" to 959
set the height of stack "ATT" to 824
end mouseUp

The backdrop is giving only black, any color I use does not work. Even in this script it is defined as white, but still gives black.
How to change this? I am using LC 6.5

Thanks

In Win7 on 5.5.5 I tested using the MessageBox.

Code: Select all

set backDrop to "blue"
worked perfectly.

Code: Select all

set backDrop to "empty"
yielded Black

Code: Select all

set backdrop to none
removed the backdrop, as discussed in the Dictionary.
