RE: After mobilePick, script may or may not continue.
Will do. I also tried all sorts of sends, send in times, waits and dispatches and it has not helped.

Re: After mobilePick, script may or may not continue.
I had also tried send in 200 millisecs. So I took your advice and tried 10
ticks as well. Still not dependable. I believe it's time to file a bug
report. Thanks for the suggestions.

Re: After mobilePick, script may or may not continue.
If I long press the choice for the first pick, most times, but not always,
the next pick list appears. I don't think this is normal behavior. Feels
like a low level bug.

Wild guess: maybe it's a timing problem. You could try moving the actual
picklist commands into a separate function (as you did) and then calling
it from another handler. But when the first picklist returns a value,
the calling handler would issue a "send getPicklist to me in 10 ticks"
command to display the second list.
Maybe it needs some recovery time. Who knows.

Re: After mobilePick, script may or may not continue.
I am still having a problem with getting subsequent mobilePick to work. I
tried moving my cases into a separate handler or function. If the script
is in a separate hidden button, I can make it work, but I don't want the
extra button(s).
*Goal:* Present a pick list, followed by another pick list based on the
context of the first.
Any ideas?
