I thought I could use "the lastClick" to check if less than (say) half a second has passed since the last click, but this does not seem to work. I checked what was happening by attaching the code "put the lastClick" to the thumbnails icon, but it doesn't seem to work. Even if I wait more than 10 seconds between clicks, the message window invariably gives me a spurious value for "the lastClick" which never seems to exceed about 12, although according to Director Help, this should "return the time in ticks (1 tick = 1/60 of a second) since the mouse button was last pressed" indicating that if I wait ten seconds between clicks the value should be at least 600. I therefore cannot use this to test the elapsed time between clicks.
Is there an easy way to prevent the second click from registering on the thumbnail icon?
