Topic: Error on opening stacks

Hello Ron....

I am experiencing the same problem... If I already have a stack open I can't double-click on the icon of another stack to open it.
You can open the other stack by going 'File > Open Stack...' from Revolution.

Good Afternoon...

Select the fill colour you want from 'colours & patterns' in the graphic's object inspector.
Make sure 'opaque' is selected in the graphic's object inspector.

This works, just as you said... set the filename of image "view1" to "image1.png" This does not work... set the filename of image "view1" to "images/image1.png" So, it looks like it has go to be sitting next to the revlet rather than being in an enclosing folder o...

I should have been a little more specific, in that it is QTVR movies that I would like to see played inside a revlet. (Klaus, please don't worry about the cat, sometimes as she peers into the screen I get the feeling that she knows more about this machine than I do... She also has a suit of body arm...

Script works in Rev 2.6 but not in 3.5

Good morning... (Well, it is here.) I have a stack that contains one image...the code below is in the card script. In Rev 2.6, this works a treat, the image moves smoothly in the stack window. Unfortunately, in Rev 3.5 it only seems to update after the mouse has been released. Movements are very jer...
