Hi Detlef, I tried tooltips. Once I realized they had to be part of the dialog definition before set_tooltip would work, everything was fine. I'm finding that after a control is used, there is a delay before its tooltip will redisplay, but it does come back. If I use another control and come back to the first one, it's tooltip redisplays right away. I'm using the style "always" which may have something to do with it working that way or not.
Also tried unload. I noticed this in the dialog doc: "Scripting tip: don't unload the dialog plugin at the end of a script that either creates a dialog, or handles a response from it. It can take a few microseconds for a dialog to be taken down, and the plugin needs to be around while that happens." Even if I put a long wait.for after a destroy and before an unload, it still crashed. But, while it wouldn't work as part of the main script, I was able to use dialog.unload from a separate script or command list/button afterwards without problems. Regards, Sheri
