Thanks for the speedy reply. It works! (which is always a heartening
first step)

-Strange beasts indeed. They've always been sort of tricky with color.
Pattern, eh? That would have taken awhile for me to find.

-Hmmm... 'color' works fine on win98, now that the shape shows on stage.
Is this not the case on Mac? I'm trying to avoid palette indexes in this
project.
------------
on mouseDown me
createShape(me, "popup1", #rect, TRUE)
end
on createShape me, aName, asType, aFilled
if member(aName).name = "" then
mem = new(#shape)
mem.name = aName
mem.shapeType = asType
mem.filled = aFilled
mem.rect = rect(0,0,50,50)
mem.pattern = 1
else
mem = member(aName)
end if
puppetSprite (20), TRUE
sprite(20).member = mem
sprite(20).loc = point(10, 10)
sprite(20).color = rgb (0, 255, 0)
-- sprite(20).forecolor = 185 -- mac palette index for rgb (0, 255, 0)
sprite(20).width = 50
sprite(20).height = 50
updateStage
end
on endsprite me
puppetSprite (20), FALSE
end
