[repeat] used to have no default value, and would just plainly refuse to instantiate if you forgot to provide the initial number of repetitions as creation args. my arguing was, that there is no sane default value. due to popular demand (iirc) a default value was added, so the object would instantiate without creation args and the user would be able to right-click the object for a help. so my advice would be to not assume any default value and always provide a creation argument indicating a repetition cound you think sane. gmars IOhannes PS: i'm tempted to issue a (clickable) error message whenver the user instantiates without arguments.
