Ask function problem

Post by CAsba » Fri Sep 12, 2025 1:51 pm

Hi,
In my project I am using many Ask dialogs, with no problems.
However, on one particular card - getting user address line1, line2, etc., on clicking the button that activates the ask dialog, the button itself reacts to the click, but nothing else happens - the dialog box is not presented; also, subsequent clicks, on the same button or on anything else on the card have no effect, nor on the tools pallette.
On Ctrl-S, the save info panel appears - with is the ask dialog box over it; when the save-info-panel disappears, the dialog remains, and text may be entered which is then shown in the correct field.
The code I am using works fine on another card.

Update, I have now discovered that the same problem with Ask is on all the cards now; they all DID work perfectly.
