RE: Finding out what changes a custom property
Yes correct. FYI the set prop handler will not be called if messages are locked. Very convenient for a LIFO. Every set prop I add a line to the top of the property. The get prop handler returns the first line then deletes it. The deleting the first item(top line) can be done later if you want so to get the top item multiple times (Remember to lock messages to keep the set prop from being called when manually deleting the top line in the property). LC is a never ending well of cool things to increase productivity.

Re: Finding out what changes a custom property
Hi Paul, In the development menu, open 'message watcher'. That's helped me with exactly what you are looking for too. Fantastic tool.

Add a setprop with either a breakpoint and/or the executionContexts?

Finding out what changes a custom property
I have a stack with a custom property, hrStart. Somewhere is miles of code and messages flying everywhere, something is changing it that shouldn't. Is there an debugger feature or tip or trick anyone has that can do teh equivalent of set a break point when a property is changed and let me see the executionContexts to tell what the heck is changing it!
