Re: Backing up a stack; problems with save as

Why does this not work?

Code: Select all

on preOpenStack
palette me
end preOpenStack
or

Code: Select all

on openStack
palette me
end openStack
viewtopic.php?p=229612&hilit=palette#p229612

Re: Scripting A Curve Graphic

Well, I don't know: all that example is is a rehash of a program I wrote in BBC BASIC on a BBC Micro in 1989 when I was bored out of my box in the U.A.E. 8)

AND, of course my 'curve' is NOT a curve at all, it is a thing made up of lots of little straight lines.

Re: Scripting A Curve Graphic

That does seem odd.

Personally I always mess around with SINES and COSINES to generate a set of values in a field, then set the points of a graphic to those points.

A week later I discovered Runtime Revolution, which was a breath of fresh air after MetaCard.
