So does anyone know what a colorPalette is?
It would be great to know, I need cheering up - and I just love secrets :) ... snip... Anyone thought of turning MC's documentation into a video game :) I think it's been done: It was called Adventure and it was very popular on the Apple II. You may recall: You are in a twisty cave...

David Bovill wrote/ schreef: I wish the documentation was that clear :) I seems to me that this feature was built for the IDE, not documented. The question I'm asking is what on earth is the colorPalette object in the Colour Chooser stack? The control browser lists it as a colourPalette Color Map and the only documentation I can find is that they have a selectedColor property. Any other properties? How would I go about creating my own palettes. It would be nice to figure this out before I go ahead and create palettes made out of buttons... Mmmm... you can't create one by create colorpalette But you need to select it with the Control Browser in the Color Palette, copy it and paste it into your own stack. Great!!! With a script like on mouseUp set the backcolor of button 1 to the selectedColor of me end mouseUp David Regards, / Groeten, Sjoerd ___ metacard mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/metacard
Re: Internet access
Works here, Hugh. (Win 2000) Thanks, Ken! Anyone else had a chance to confirm this? I am trying to make semi-automatic Internet access available on a Win-based CD ROM program and would very much appreciate it if you folks would try this one-liner ... on mouseUp launch rasphone.exe end mouseUp Does it work for you? It should allow you to connect if off-line, or disconnect if on-line. Please drop me a line saying if it works for you and your setup (95, 98, ME, NT, 2000, XP) or if you foresee any problems implementing it. /H Hugh Senior The Flexible Learning Company Consultant Programming Software Solutions Fax/Voice: +44 (0)1483.27 87 27 Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Web: www.flexibleLearning.com --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.

Re: save
Have you verified that the script is in fact being executed? Maybe there's another 'closeStack' handler somewhere along the message path? (To test it, you could add a beep or 'put CLOSING ' statement in the handler and see if anything new happens upon close.) Another possibility: have you verified that 'this stack' is the stack you think it is? To test, you could add put the name of this stack in the handler. Hope this helps.

HyperCard's searchscript handler searches scripts, but it sounds like you just want to find text in the reference. Use the Find command (Cmd-F or under the Tools menu) which will bring up a dialog. You can use that to search for text in stacks. MC doesn't provide a searchscript utility, but I suspect a lot of us have made our own. I have one I can send you privately if you want it. -- Jacqueline Landman Gay | [EMAIL PROTECTED] HyperActive Software | http://www.hyperactivesw.com ___ metacard mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/metacard

If you are still in the evaluation phase, you might have a look at Revolution (also based on the MetaCard engine). It has a search feature that allows you to specify a search of scripts, as well as other options. regards, Geoff ___ metacard mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/metacard
RE: So does anyone know what a colorPalette is?
David, The read me had the mention about that feature. Tonite, i'll try my best to make my palette maker stack available. It's not exactly 100% finished and full featured but it is fun to watch and tweak and the colors are just great! Makes any type of palette through mathematics using a wheel (much like the mac palette) though as mentioned below, more features will be added. I'll post on the list when it's ready! As usual, you make a stack for a solution and when you read the read me, your stack is a simple command!
