Not per se. Doing this sort of thing dynamically calls for more "record keeping". In this case, keeping track of when to unpuppet the sprite. It's a different way of thinking about working in Director, the extreme case is when you never need to open the score window at all during authoring, because you're doing it _all_ in Lingo and it's a one-frame movie. If the rest of your project is heavily score-based, what you may want to do is determine the max number of file icons you'll want to display and put them in the score. Then alter their locs and toggle their visibility as needed. Either way, you have a bunch of keeping track to do. The latter method may take a little less head-bending on your part, and that's a fine thing, unless you have the time for a 'learning experience'. -- Carl West [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://eisen.home.attbi.com I have no superfluous leisure; my stay must be stolen out of other affairs; but I will attend you awhile. - Isabella, Measure for Measure, Act 3 Scene 1 - [To remove yourself from this list, or to change to digest mode, go to http://www.penworks.com/lingo-l.cgi To post messages to the list, email [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Problems, email [EMAIL PROTECTED]).
